Lights Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 (edited) Limit the amount of post count people get per day, it seems there's a huge amount of people spamming till 100 posts to sell an account. I think that a limit to like getting 15 actual post count points per day would help prevent this. Numbers not strictly 15, could be more, 15 was just what I thought was a reasonable number they can still post more but just won't get PC Edited May 10, 2014 by Lightsy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eliot Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 No support. Mods can just deal with the violators instead of limiting everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roar Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Meh I don't agree, coming from someone who doesn't post that often I still think that people should be able to post as long as it is relevant to the topic and or brings something new to the discussion. Obviously there are people who spam but the mods deal with it, however what happens to normal users who are experienced for example scripters who may want to or be capable of replying to more then 15 topics? If this limit was introduced then they would be forced to post on threads they deemed more important which leaves questions unanswered on other topics.

IJerk1t Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 No support. There are individuals that need to post a lot due to: services, shops and script threads. If they're unable to reply, their customer service drops, therefore reputation drops also. Moderators already take the right actions towards spammers, a best suggestion would be a flood timer, which, correct me if I'm wrong I think is already in place.

RoomScape Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Is this even possible? I guess you could increase the time delay per post, but not sure if you can cut it off after a certain amount for a certain amount of time. If you see someone spamming, just report the post or user (bottom right of profile) and a mod will delete their posts. I don't care so much about the rule, so I'm neither for nor against it. Just gets annoying when people keep making threads about users spamming when all they have to do is report the post... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it's possible I always report it, but it would just make a it easier if there was a post count restriction, and a rule like this would prevent more threads about spam if a mod see a new account post count then just ban them ^^ ( not ip just account ban ) They remove some of the users posts when they do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wall3r Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Remove 100 post Pls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 The 100 post restriction will still stay. If you see anyone spamming, just report it whether it be by clicking the "Report" button at the bottom right hand side of the post, or notifying myself or another staff member. I would rather punish one individual than have the whole community affected just because of their spam. Thank you for your concern. ^_^ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
