    Anti-Newbie-Spam Suggestion

    There has been alot of spam from newbies making their first few posts. If we could possibly limit them to the, "Newbie Forum," until they have at least 10 posts then maybe the spam from newbies would decrease.

    acualy, they have to post at least 5-10 posts ANYWHERE and any supermod or admin or whatever will check each post of spam or flame first so we dont have unneeded posts. these post will stay unseen until an admin/supermod have viewed them. although it would get really annoying having to check all of the posts...

    I might stay with your idea.

      More reasonable then completely cutting them off from the other sections from the start I suppose.

      But with hundreds of new members each day it'll be quite the job for anyone to do.

        Well maybe some of the people who have been here longer can report stupid posts like "lolz yea guyz mai honda goz faaast after i play this game" or something similar. Not as much work for our FFR supermods/admins and it would reduce noob spamming.
        By the way this applies for first 5-10 posts.


        I support using the Edit Button. You should too.
