I got an idea, maybe its useless

When a person have registered, he or she will get a 6-8 digit number and are only allowed to post in the "Comments to SUBSIM Review" Here the person can create their first thread. The person who have registered will also receive a note in their conformations mail. In this note the person could read

"Dear N.N thank you for your interest in our Sub - community. Before we give you full access to all of goodies, we need a personal letter from you, where you tell us your interest, where you live, your age and so on. Until then feel free to post something about you in the Comments to SUBSIM Review, this is the only place you can post until on of our moderators has given the green lights. If everything goes as planned, you will receive another mail from us."

After a person has done so, send a pm to Neal or some other moderator, this person gets another mail from Subsim-Here the person can now create his or her nickname and log-on code.

Just an idea.

When this new "not yet approved member" post something in the Comments to SUBSIM Review-subforum, we will not see a nickname, but this 6-8 digit-This 6-8 digit will be there until this new member has been approved, then those 6-8 digit number will change to what alias he or she has picked

Not buying it, now give President Trump a big wet kiss and all will be forgiven.

Forget my idea I wrote about before-It will not prevent a spammer to spam the only place this person are allowed to post in.

Eventually a new member are first allowed to post own threads or write comments after he or she has been approved by some of the moderator or Neal. Same here, the person has to send a mail with information about him or her, before getting the green light.

Shows how long it's been since I bought a pint in a boozer: is it really up to £5 now, STEED? I get all mine from ALDI... you just reminded me that I've got another one for the 'Skippers Brewhouse'

Hey someone is reading my views on life, give that man a bottle of ale.

We relaxed for a minute and they launched a fresh offensive. Thanks to the RA team and ever-reliable Jimbuna, they were halted with only six spam posts.

Default Whac-A-Spammer



I've noticed from a previous attack and now this one, that the spammers never seem to be able to eliminate 'Whac-A-Squirrel'; their posts have gone down the page as far as mine and then stopped. Does this mean that Whac-A-Squirrel acts like some kind of Firewall? Maybe it should be a sticky and remain running permanently?

Yes I am being sarcastic.
