Protecting New Users

Would it be possible to make something along the lines of a very short message that pops up sometime around creating an account, warning new users that they can block annoying PMs, and can report any master/slave requests if they are under 18?

I'm sure it's written in some rules in some post somewhere, etc. but let's face it, most people don't read long walls of text or go looking for rules. And the amount of people who PM brand new members trying to pick them up as a slave before they know any better to look after themselves or say no is really ridiculous. You need only ask any female member to find the truth of that.

I just think a really short message that's forced right in front of their eyes to read so they can't miss it might help a little in letting new users know that they don't have to put up with that bullshit the creepers and the desperate & ignorant are doing every day on here, and that it's not approved by the site.

Good idea leo, the message could even appear when they open a pm for the first time or first few times etc.

That's the sort of thing I was thinking - just a really really short warning that is actually short enough that everyone will read it, letting them know not to accept any slave master requests until they understand things for themselves, etc.
