Why not do what they are doing over in the CLS forums? New members first few (6-10) posts are moderated, and accepted/declined on that basis. After that moderation time is up, members can post when they want without thier posts being screened? I know that this is extra work for the moderaters, but maybe if all new posts are moved straight to the admin board, and have an accep/deline button that mods can press after reading it. After that it can be moved back to the forum it was 'posted' in...?

Only an Idea but it's been put into practice elsewhere.

Cheers,
Alex  ;D

Spammers & trolls rely on people responding to their topics to keep them current. If everyone simply ignored them the topics would soon disappear into the depths of the forum without any help from anyone.

Unfortunately it seems that some people can't resist responding to them & fall into the trap every time.

It's also one of the top selling foods in Hawaii. I think it's #1?

Personally, I can't stand that crap.... ;D

That is a good idea. 10 replies or so before you can post. Not the world to ask for if you are serious about being here and easily completed.
