    Re: New user registration temporarily shut down

    Will there be any changes to the registration process when it's re-opened?

      There will more than likely be a post limit to new users, and a post count needed to be able to post new threads.

        I was thinking about suggesting like a 30 or 40 post minimum for creating a new thread. It seems a bit Draconian, and would suck for the legitimate new posters, and other guys who don't post regularly, but these spammers are getting totally annoying.

        Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.

        Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.

            Ooh, took the nuclear option. Something definitely had to be done though; it got way out of hand.

                    Was there a ban on new users sending out PMs? Because I can't send any to anyone..

                      Yes. You must have 20 posts or 7 days on the site before you can access our PM system.

                          what about creating a dynasty or a thread?

                            Just registered on another forum and found their spam filter pretty cool. One of the questions clearly asked if I was a spammer with the box already checked 'Yes' and the next question asked a simple math question. A few sites that I visit have something similar and I don't see too many of them getting enormous amounts of spam like we do here at OS.
