Yes, I read through the whole thing. I read through them because I prefer to do things right the first time around. I know the admins usually give warnings/reminders before people get in trouble but honestly I think it's downright rude to expect volunteers to spend their own free time going out of their way to correct every person about common slip-ups every time they happen when you could just spend 5 minutes reading the policy page one time. They're a little verbose, so some readers might be getting wall-of-text syndrome, which can be discouraging. But on the other hand, I don't know how you could shorten them without making them less clear. Or maybe people just need to be reminded that they're there, but seriously there's a button on the front page, I don't know what else you can do aside from going out of your way to constantly say "read the policies."
 * Have you ever actually read all the way through the policies?
 * Why did/didn't you read them?
 * If you have, did you notice a technical flaw that could be fixed and make them easier/better to read?
