Limit the number of times a person can post in C&A

Post by TotoroHat »

Limit the number of times a person can post in C&A to less than 15 posts a month.




Concise description:
Too many people are flaming or hurting the C&A boards making it less likely that I would report anything serious with this site because of all the haters who will flame or post or spam multiple times in every thread!

Simple... No more than XXX number of posts in that thread per month

15 posts? maybe per week but even the mods would break that

Of course the mods would not be included. Well, at least the ones who have anything official to do with that forum.

I like this idea. It probably needs a bit of tweaking, but if it would cut down on the number of frivolous threads titled, "Delete Plz" it could definitely have some merit.

May be simpler to deduct 10 points for every frivolous claim... or post?
That way your points become currency for goofing in C&A.

Good idea, however exceptions must take place. Such as, mods, they should be able to post whatever number neccesary.
Also, accusation maker and accused individual, as soon as in the relevant thread, s/he should have unlimitted post right.

I'd much rather see people who do frivolous posts/claims get the limit, instead of everyone...

I don't think phpBB has any feature to limit the number of posts a user can make in a designated forum, so the only other options for dealing with issues such as a spam or spurious reports are those suggested in this topic.
