| blah blah blah | Just out of curiousity, is there no way that some kind of program/script can be adapted so that a new user with less than a couple posts can only post under a certain amount of words? would stop these huge posts.

| MJ lady with maracas | there is, but allowing them to make the full post gives me more data to send along with a complaint, which stops/slows these down in the long run. That said, they generally last the best bit of 10 mins anyway

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I know another website where new members can only start posting on a tuesday, regardless of when they sign up. They call it a newbie tuesday. Maybe you could put a 24 hour threshold between signing up and posting. I imagine that might filter out such spammers. |

| Mini Mac | Is there not a way that you can put a ban on members starting threads of their own until they have made 5 meaningful posts. I know a few forums have that implemented.You could make it so the only forum they can post in would be the introductions.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | That's a good idea! They'd be disappointed and probably wouldn't come back after the 24hrs to make the thread and then go again.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | There is this feature available in vB but as there is an Introductions forum here it wouldn't work as you can't limit it to certain forums.

| Super Moderator | Yep i know forums that have done you cant make a thread until you have made 25 posts. But for this type of forum, new people need help so i agree with beezer that members should have to do 5 meaningful posts.

| MJ lady with maracas | I can/could do any of the suggestions above, but have chosen not to do so, as I said most spam gets dealt with within 10 mins, but having it posted enables me to send of complaints to isps/servers which have been compromised and are being used as a proxy etc As with all spam, simply report it, then forget about it
