    Newb Forums

    We're all aware of the increasing amounts of leecher who NEVER post, or only post spam / flames, we all know those 1 rep, 0 post newbs who steal everything. Well, a solution:

    Either:
    Add a new rank for people with 1 rep and 10- posts
    -OR-
    Leave it how it is, then:

    Add new forums for those people, and only allow access to them until they Either:
    Get 2 Rep and 10+ posts, or get their Faded-Blue (blue-white) name, then they can access the rest of the forums, and all people could access the newb forums. A bit scrambled, but I'd recommend a new rank / title 'Newb' with a Black or Grey name that wouldn't show up to much, and trap them all in the Newb Forums until they contribute, then they can access the rest of the sections :3 (Except Elite of course, until they donate / get Contributor)

    Donators are an exception, of course.
    I used to be a Super Mod. Now I'm just Super, thanks for asking.

    Re: Newb Forums

    I support this idea. However, they would just spam the newb forums until they could access the rest of the forums.

    Re: Newb Forums

    unless they have rep, which in a forum trapped with noobs that spam/flame could be hard to do.

    but even though I'd be stuck in a living hell, I also /agree

    Re: Newb Forums

    This won't work because this forum is about free exploits, hacks, bots and guides. If you join and don't immediately get something free, your going to be mad, and I'm sure most newcomers will treat it that way. Yes we need a way to decrease the amount of leechers, but we may have to find another way.

    Re: Newb Forums

    Nub, the idea I'm hoping for is you have to reach at least 2 Reputation, and 10+ posts to get out of the Newb Forums, but eithe rplan works.

    Then, I guess, they should post someL USEFUL stuff to get rep to be able to get to the normal> users forum.

    Would reduce the flood of reposts, useless stuff and everything else what is annoying to see... daily...

    you are missing the point.. why did you come to mmowned or more important, why did you stay here? because you had access to the xploits, priv server, model editing, programs. I would like to bet that you wouldnt have stayed if there was nothing else than a forum with "where is the rest of the content" "why cant i see priv servers" "when can i see exploits" "model editing forum removed??!??" and so on.
