The Internet is a medium of short attention spans.
People don't stop to read TOS agreements, trim replies before responding to an email list, and they don't look up rules, even when there is a link right above where they are going to type up a new thread.
The UI in the Reddit App helps a tiny bit with the link to the rules on the thread posting form and the Welcome Message sent to people who *actually join* the subreddit before posting.
However, many, many, people will not open the rules or any anything else that is not *in their direct path* to posting a thread.
As a moderator it is frustrating to have no means to *make sure* that people see the subreddit rules in the Reddit App before they post.
I also feel sorry for user who make long, off topic, well written posts only to have those posts removed.
Thank You
