JigSaw suggested a brilliant idea, limit the amount of Viz a newbie can make per a post. So the limit is 10 Viz. No matter how big their post is, they cannot make more than 10 Viz.

The reason for this is that some newbies make huge posts with content they copied somewhere else in order to get a ton of Viz for their post, or they'll make a large spammy post. Well now they can no longer abuse the system.

That's a smart move, David. I remember how I just copied A LOT of info and just posted it on a thread. And I have seen people use this as their way of spamming. believe me, it's kinda annoying *flashes spam hunter badge*

This should do the trick for those types of spammers. Hopefully once they pass newbie level they know how to post well so this wont happen. If it does I will ban them and take away all their Viz

Sounds good but some people will probably complain about it. There really is no reason to though. If you were going to spam it anyway then it's pretty easy to spot spammers now. Or at least potential ones.

Yes, that would definitely help, it would prevent long text 'copy paste' spamming. Even though some people might complain, you don't make too much more Viz from doing long posts anyways, so I think that it's a great idea.

Sounds good to me. We'll probally still get people that do copy and paste whole pages worth, but at least this way they wont get rewarded for it.

I think that this is a great idea. I would always try to stretch out my post length by getting rid of contractions (can't would become "can not", to get two words instead of one), and I'm pretty sure that my rambling posts made some people pretty mad. I don't think it will make people too mad though, because they will only be Newbies for 10 posts and a week. I think it will help the spamming problems a lot. Great idea!

Davideo7 : Hey, not that I care to get Viz considering I rarely spend any, but why is it no matter how big a post I make, whether it is 10 or 50 words, I only get 5 Viz for it?

Hoochman : I think it's because you have 16 thumbs down, when you have that many thumbs down than you get deducted 5 Viz. Not sure why people rated your post quality down but if you improve it than users will give you thumbs up.

People probably don't like my posts because they're strongly right wing and christian. At least, that's the only reason I can think of.

Hoochman : Actually I think your quality isn't worth -16 so I gave you thumbs up for 2 posts, that puts you at -14. I'm going to be fixing and redoing the system eventually.

Hoochman : I just reviewed over who gave you your thumbs and for what posts and all I gotta say is most were very unfair and that we have 2 or 3 members on this site who are huge bigots. So I deleted all of your thumbs down from the database since most were pretty unfair. This just motivates me even more to re-do this system, it's far to easily abused at the moment and it's unfair that people would give you negative thumbs just because they disagreed with what you said.

Yeah, thanks man. I do say I've seen a lot of bias here. Even the Christian Conservatives isn't entirely safe for me to be posting freely without negativity. Well thanks anyway. I didn't know I had that much negativity toward my posts. I hardly ever give any thumbs toward people, and when I do its usually a thumbs up. Thanks again man. I'm glad someone here understands.

I think this is a good idea also.now, it won't only stop making tons of spam posts, it will also make more room for more posts on forum pages and makes useless forums be less popular then they should be.
