 Example/

Will the new forum rule help limit random spam and trolling?

Yes, of course, with the limit of words at 4 words people cant troll by saying PS3 sux, or Wiistards are fags, or just plain posting spam, or old in topics. For old topics It will force them to put a link (counts as a word in posts) and say "has been posted already." Plus it will make it so posts are a touch more intelligent sounds.

 

As you could see I could have answered a simpe Yes, but i explained upon the answer improving it's overall quality.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

 we sadly cant do anything about that.. the point of this is to improve the general quality of this site and show we have mature members. There is always at least one bad seed.

ssj12, if you are going to enforce this (in my opinion crazy, and not specified in the rules) rule, then you must also ban gebx at the top of the page for posting

"Congrats to Both!!"

as that only contains 3 words, and 2 exclamation points.

Also, please ban Bodhesatva for also just posting a picture (it only contained 2 words)

In all reality, I think that you need to learn to moderate with a bit of mercy instead of banning people for doing nothing to actually disturb the forums. For example, send weezy a warning telling him he is breaking a rule that unless he was stalking DKII he would never know about.

Also, please get ioi to update the rules, if you are going to be enforcing it so strictly, so people can see it coming rather than being blindsided.
