    So just a quick question, do you mods have any plan on attack to keep these morons in check?, they're starting to randomly post in threads as opposed to making their own lol.

    Having more than one on at a time may help.

    Possibly. I'm all about the idea of a minimum post count of 25 to create your own threads, but that might encourage them to ultra spam in other peoples threads until they can accumulate enough to make their own.

    Its a pickle mate. I can spot em straight away, but i'm not the one with the shotgun, so to speak As bento mentioned, most of them are actual people, which makes it harder to pick sometimes also.

    Well, sounds like thread creation limitations are the way to go. So far at least lol.

    Maybe we should look at some vbulletin plug-ins? I'm sure there will be one that allows users to vote down post/threads and have them hidden deleted when the vote reaches a cerntain level.

    That or look at giving more users admin powers to delete threads/posts.
