Justin™ 204 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Since it's more then obvious that some members will post to any topic to increase their post count. Example: Members who just joined posting to members intros from a month or two ago.So, I'd like to suggest that all topics over 31 days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evarni 174 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Justin probably meant to say that the topics over 31 days should be locked. It's a great suggestion, and I support it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin™ 204 Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 (edited) Justin probably meant to say that the topics over 31 days should be locked. It's a great suggestion, and I support it.Yeah, just a little tired and overworked.You guys have enough to do and the spamming here has gotten way out of hand. I've seen some members just join and spam 15 posts in a minute just so they can access the downloads. Edited April 19, 2013 by Justin™ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hitsugaya Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 People are simply trying to leech WebFlake. Honestly, I think we should suspend any member who is obviously trying to leech. If they continue, they should receive a ban. It's quite annoying when people just want to exploit a great community and ruin it via spam, leech etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yuu 180 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 +1, I agree with this suggestion. Leechers will do anything to get to the downloads. 2 Need some IPB, MyBB, or HTML/CSS work done? Check out my thread! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evader 0 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 I don't really like the idea. It's kind of pointless because, what about people who need their three posts to download? It's really hard to make a post that's not considered spam. So locking old topics won't really make a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members who just joined shouldn't be able to "welcome" other members who joined a month or two before them. Not only is it stupid, it's out and out spam posting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkXess 1 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 +1, I agree with this suggestion. Leechers will do anything to get to the downloads. You can download anyways, its requests and other forums they are trying for. I suggest new members are moderated and then set off a leash by the moderator once his trial period has come to and end, lol. Moderators are here for things like that, so let them do more around here by something like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JustWantDownload Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Removal of post requirements would definitely cut back on spam, since most users just want to download / request. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Tony 5,207 Posted May 8, 2013 Administrator Share Posted May 8, 2013 This topic is no longer of any use as our Download Policy has changed. As for Moderators needing to "do more around here", we have plenty to do. Topic locked to prevent unnecessary spam/thread necro'ing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
