View Full Version : New Member limitations

Ok, I was playing with some stuff for new members today that may affect existing members.

To lower the negativity and spam, there's a new limitation for new members. New members must have 10 posts or be on the board for 30 days before they can start a new thread. I apologize to new members who have good intentions on the board. Just contribute to the board and 10 posts will fly by.

For existing members, I made the sig limitations bigger for text. You are still limited to 1 image, but you have more text. We'll see what else we can add for people who are here for a while, but for now you get these two advantages.

If there are any probs posting, please let me know.

Uhhh......what?

What exactly are the "new" sig rules? Is it still 300x100? I can't find the "rules" posted anywhere on this God forsaken board.

With the old limitations, you could only have three lines of text in your sig.

I think this is a great idea, as far as the newbies are concerned. But I wish that they had done something about the text lines before, because when I migrated to the new board, everything was messed up and I had to lose a lot of stuff that I used to have (props and whatnot).
I think it would be better though if they went to 20 instead of 10, just so the newbies can be felt out before they reveal their true nature as spammers, if thats what they are. Just my .02.

There Should Probably Also Be An Intelligence Re-Test For People With Over, Say, 10,000 Posts. You Know, Like They Give Elderly Drivers Vision And Driving Tests To Make Sure They Can Still Drive.

Did you think of how RichDebutante, S.a.s.a., and chattercunt would feel when you made this rule? What about cuntcleaner and KongoFilmer or Cunt_Hanzcraft or Cunk!? Let's just say a day where i don't get to read a new thread from shitdick and shitdick187 is a not a very good day at all. Fuck shits though he is an asshole.

Well it's true actually. At point I was the same way, i posted everywhere even in threads I had no interest in at all. Though once I hit 10k, I decided to slow it down. Though now I've been posting a hell of a lot more over the past few months.

Even my plethora of board characters beat this rule. I'm with the others on the 20 posts min rule. Either that or parkway jesus is going to plug his new pyramid scheme and hair growth tonic.

thank you Roseblood for seeing just how my mind works. if you only knew the pain at which i lived with because of my gift.

actually, i have been staying out of the babseball threads and i have avoiding the threads that i feel like i cannot really to. plus, 2.0 does slow you down with the new look and time limits. So i would have to go with RB's line of thought on it.

i agree. and it's not aboot censoring them, it's just wouldn't you want to pick up the vibe, see how people interact before jumping in willy-nilly? heck, i was a member for a month or two before i even felt bold enough to post, let alone start a thread.

Agreed. I still think 10 posts is way too little, but to each his own I suppose.
