what about closing the registration for some weeks\months ?
so we can get rid off these spammers
and use the option on uBB that you have to be a member to access the forums in the first place
so we can get things under control
its getting more and more ridiculous
last week or the week before i read that ppl are considering to leave the forum because of the spammers and etc
make it a privat forum for a while so we might get back to the level it used to be
where it all was about music
plur

A pretty decent idea, but i think unfair to newbies.... Granted, there are some spammers on here, but there always will be... I think turning off registration for a couple of months unfair to newbies (say your friends that you tell about this site?)... Besides there are a lot of newbies who are pretty good at track ID and could be helpful around here
As far as the viewing forum blocking idea, another great idea, but i would be a hyprocrite saying that.... I was browsing the forums on here and reading for 7 months before i actually signed up... why? i don't know. Just never felt like i knew enough to join in the conversation.
I think the best idea was to remove the # of posts - people seem to use this as a "echelon indicator"..... i.e. making you better or something stupid like that if you have a lot of posts.
But in reality all this site needs is more time & posts from Swamper! Never quite know what he is up to....
