Forums - Website Topics - Finally past the nightmarish 50 post barrier!

 

Should it require 50 posts just to be able to write a blog?

Yes, we must earn the right. 42 87.50%
 
No, it's nonsense. 6 12.50%
 
Total:48

Welcome, welcome! And yes, new members should be required to post a few posts before being able to create a thread. I think 50 might be a bit more than what's required to prevent spam bots from creating threads so the number could probably be a bit lower, but I can't really know for sure. It'd be useful if admins/moderators had access to some statistics about this, or if they otherwise knew how many posts spam bots usually manage to post before being banned.

Mods ahoy, maybe watch that a bit in the future so we can determine a proper limit? Obviously the lower the limit, the more it encourages discussion. It's finding the proper balance that's important. And if you've already considered this, please ignore me and feel free to consider me a smartass. :D

I can't remember the last time I made a thread. Not making threads is kind of my thing around here. Welcome! Friend request incoming. Easily the fastest that has ever happened. :)

Damn and here I thought that was my thing ....

 

Anyhow welcome niceguygameplayer.



Ahhh to be 4714 posts younger...



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

50 posts really isn't too much and it helps prevent bots from spamming threads

Welcome! Enjoy your time here ;)

Yeah about half a day's worth. Nothing really.

Eh.. I admit I used to be a spammer a while back, but I knocked it down a notch in the past year and a half or so!
