xianti, i think you should make a minimum requirement of posts to be able to post in the commune. theres been a big increase in all these spammers posting here. idk what a good number would be because there are obv people that join ftr that actually post here that arent spamming, but 90% of the spammers join and then post spam in the bc or commune immediately, like this guy talking about a 2k freeroll on crazy poker or something.

if we do this, then there will just be more spamming in the other forums. id rather have it in the commune than SHNL or something.

hmm yeah thats a good point. god damn spammers, they cant be beat, because if theres even one person that starts playing on whatever b.s. they are advertising it makes it worth it for them. i think what the world needs is no stupid people who actually fall for it, then the spammers would go away!

Let's make it so that they have to have 10 posts before they can post.

it's not nearly as bad as it was when we were vulnerable to spambots. there's usually a mod logged-in and the obvious spammers get dealt with post-haste.
the 2k freeroll guy gets the benefit of the doubt for the moment since 'rilla posted in his thread and didn't touch it. we use our discretion and sometimes leave threads alone if they're relatively harmless or have funny potential.

I think all past and future commune posts should contribute to your post count. Just about all forums have some sort of community/lounge forum, and this is the only one that I know of where those posts don't count.

i thought 10 might be a good number too, but then i realized how fucking annoying it would be to have these assholes just posting shit like 1, 2, 3, etc. until they got to 10. you almost have to make like 75, because at least then thye will have to really waste a lot of time to be able to post in the commune, and if they are going to make 10 bs posts, why not make them work for it, eh?

i'm almost certain that i'd have at least 6-7k posts if commune was included. i figure since my mod + king'o'love stamp got removed, i might as well shoot for the royal flush.

we should require members to sacrifice goats and send vials of blood extracted from said goats to xianti every month in order to retain their posting privileges.
