    Default Stop Spamming!!!

    I may be the only person that clicks "New Postwhatever the # is)" everytime I log in, but I seem to notice that tons of new accounts are spamming just to get their 10 post count. I suggest that they not be allowed to post for like 24 hours because all they do is say something like "Nice Script" or "Sweet it worked well...". How can they now if it is a nice script if they have like 3 posts... or how can they know that it worked well if they posted like four of the same kind of posts in a row(saying that the scripts worked good).

    Sorry for freakin out but I had to say something becuz I am sick of all the SPAM... especially when I want to see if a script really is working or am trying to reply to someone that I have been talking to. When I joined SRL, I asked questions on threads and read a ton of tutorials! I knew about scripting before I even became a Junior Member, and I think that all "Registered Members" should...

    You don't have to reply if you don't want to I was just letting my anger out!

    There should be a flood interval of like 1 minute.

    And I think the Junior Members should be raised to 30 or 40 posts and 2 weeks.

    there is a flood interval(if you mean that you can't post again until 1 minute...)

    I don't know about the 30 or 40 posts thingy cuz then they would just gravedig every dumb tutorial and post something stupid like "thanks this helped alot i will try to remember that!"

    Flood interval is already in existence.

    No one will agree with me, but we should have an application to join Jr. Member, having 10-15 people reviewing them.

    Ya, I can agree with you, because that would get rid of a lot of spamming!

    Just remove the 10 post count bar and keep it as 1 week wait time, then they will still have to wait & hopefully will post some usefull things, I'd rather see a junior member with few but no spam posts over a junior member with plenty of posts but all spammed so he can download some scripts.

    Sure, let's degrade everyone to Registered User and see how happy they become

    Also, some logical thinking - 9000 posts of spam > 10 posts of spam.

    Give a higher punishment for spam posts. Don't give them as many chances to stop spamming. Maybe it would be more effective to just make them stop by banning them. Or if they spam post they could get 1 week added on to their time left until JM for each spam post...that they post. That way when they post 10 spams they just have to wait for like 2.5 months.

    Or, you could do what someone posted earlier and throw out entirely the post limit, and just make it a 1-2 week wait for jr. member.

    I know its been a while since anyone posted on this, I just feel like posting my thoughts.

    Personally I feel that you should have to prove yourself before you can become a junior member, sort of like becoming a member but not to that extent. For instance, Make them prove they have some knowledge about SCAR, SRL, and scripting in general. Make sure that they at least have the ability to contribute to the community. Make sure there going to stick around and be involved. Then whether you have to to apply to be a junior member as well as member, or admins/ members or who ever can just promote when they see fit. To me that seems like it would solve the SPAM problem pretty good.

    I like that, it would keep the "nice script, will try" posts down on outdated scripts.

    I think that that would require too much work from the admins and they would never go for that, even though it is a good idea...(its been suggested before)

    That would require no work for the admins.

    Let the jr. members/srl-members decide.

    Alright, I've been nice but this shit is really starting to piss me off. People are posting in threads that are over 5+ months old just to get their post count up. Then they complain that it doesn't work. -.- I think that any thread over 2 months old should be locked or an option of being removed. People really need to start reading here on this forums, if the date says 2-26-06 DON'T FUCKING POST THERE! Is it really that hard? I think that a person should get 2 chances if they grave dig. The first one will be a severe warning, the second would be banned. I'm fucking tired of opening up the forums and seeing 100+ new posts on 50+ outdated material.

    Another thing that is fucking annoying is the fact that when people post a whole new thread on a topic that has been answered or fixed. We try to help them by saying "Read the tuts", "Go here", or whatever else because we are tired of repeating it over and over. Then the person who posted the thread gets mad at us for not answering their question and pops an attitude. If you're not going to heed our advice then don't fucking ask for it. Simple as that. If you need me too, I can say it in dumb dumb terms.

    About the idea of being accepted into Junior Members is a great idea. Because they would have to prove themselves useful to get in. If the Admins set this up then anyone who is already a Jr. Mem should stay like it is, and everyone who is "Pending" would need to be accepted, unless they have 2 days or less to go. Just my thoughts for now.

    Sorry for being so upset but it's 3 am and I can't sleep and all the bullshit posts pissed me off. Have a great day
