*** NEW ANTI SPAM MEASURES ***
Due to the recent increase in spammers signing up just to spread links to their lame sites, I've made some changes to how the forum works:
- You must have 25 or more posts to be able to put links in posts or PM's
- You must have 25 or more posts to be able to fill in the optional profile information (ICQ, AIM, MSN, Yahoo, website, location, occupation, interests & signature)
I can't see it being a problem, as any genuine member will find it easy to make 25 posts and then have access to do these things, as for the spammers, :alienflip:

Good measures Karma/Jabba. I can understand those sort of members can annoy the community here.

Simple plan but genius and effective I'm sure. I doubt anybody woould be all that bothered to make 25 posts just to post a link...I'm pretty sure they'll just move on to a nother message board. *Thumbs up*

i think a rule of something like needed 50 posts to start a topic would be even better.. but great to see something done! this kind of shit is very lame indeed
