705384 - Re-work warning regarding article comments

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(support.mozillamessaging.com Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[jenzed]

Currently, when someone clicks "Discussion" in the sidebar beside an article, a header is displayed that says: 

"This forum is a discussion about improving the "Make Thunderbird the Default Mail Client" article.

If you need help with Thunderbird, please ask a question."

This is not working - people are still logging support questions in article discussion forums. Please change the text to:

<huge><red><blinking>Do not ask support or usage questions in this thread!</blinking></red></huge>

This thread is for discussing problems and improvements to the article. Check out the <link http://getsatisfaction.com/mozilla_messaging>Community Support Forum</link> for issues with Thunderbird functionality.

:sancus can we make it red blinking :-) ? Seriously is there some sort of low tech clever thing we can do here?

People typically do not read these kinds of warnings, so it doesn't surprise me that this hasn't worked. I'm not really sure that making it red(or god forbid, blinking) is going to make it work, either.

Does SUMO not have this problem?
