Default Advanced site rules
All hacks about rules that exist so far are very simple.
It would be really nice to have one with columns for rule/punisment, categories (so that you set rules for different parts of the site), option in each rule to contain no "punishment" field in its row (that would be useful for delarations, statements, guidelines etc), import/export rules in various formats, WYSIWYG editor, display last update date somewhere. (Escpecially new forums tend to update the rules regularly) etc

Gave ya coderz an idea?

That's what you have announcements for.

I was looking for something more "professional". Something dedicated completely to rules

I kind of don't see the basis for calling announcements "unprofessional".

Rules aren't announcements.

Ok, I'll tell you my case.
I have a site vBulletin based with quite a lot of different sections (including the planned ones) and I'd like to have every rule for every section together on a separate page(s) dedicated to rules, with fields for "rule" and "punisment" and such staff, all the guidelines and misc statements which arent rules, all organized in a tabular style so that it's not too boring for a member to read and understand. My forum is quite strict with the rules and we need a detailed and "professional" system for them.
Do you really think this could be done with announcments?

Use BBCODE? You can even, AFAIK, enable HTML in announcements.
And to have them on one page, enable "group announcements"...

If announcments were soooo appropriate then why there are so many hacks for rules?

Also why not save the functionality of announcments to something more suited for them? I don't think that the vb devs were thinking of rules when they made announcments.

Because annonuncements are only appropriate for local rules. That's what you use 'em for... And the hacks are for global rules, since there is no way to show a global thread on every page of the site (which is what those hacks are for).

But I don't want local rules. At least not them displayed locally!
I want them all together in a separate vb-powered page!

I'm quite certain you didn't understood what I actually need. Probably my fault as my english is not very good :nervous:
What I need is a hack like cyb forum rules (which I currently have) with the features I stated at my first post
