    Minimum Posts allowed to see the whole forum

    There would be a secondary forum where all of the n00bs go to do everything that we would do, just in that forum. You would reach up to like lets say 100 posts as an example. And after you get to that many you are able to go into the regular forums. This shows that we can monitor your abuse of posting to get ahead, bad people, spamming etc.

    The reason provided for not doing this was because people would simply spam the hell out of that forum so they could get to this one faster.

    While I brought of the point of that telling us who deserves to be banned, it didn't do much.

    So there you go.
    I watched clouds awobbly from the floor o' that kayak. Souls cross ages like clouds cross skies, an' tho' a cloud's shape nor hue nor size don't stay the same, it's still a cloud an' so is a soul. Who can say where the cloud's blowed from or who the soul'll be 'morrow? Only Sonmi the east an' the west an' the compass an' the atlas, yay, only the atlas o' clouds.

      I say try again and maybe with some attention it cam do much.

      It in my eyes is an excellent idea. It might not be the best idea ever but it still can fix a ton of FFR's problems with people.

        Not a bad idea. Most n00bs start off making pointless posts that just annoy people, let them get the hang of it where they are all contained. It would also filter out all the people who just want to make 10 posts to piss someone off and then never come back. I say do it.

              I don't like the idea, it seems like something that would be in history films 30 years from now. "Big time posters discriminate against n00bs, the next installment in the Civil Rights Movement begins!"

                What happens if a newb has a question that is answered in one of the forums he can't see?

                Not only is this idea overly elitest, but it's probably inconvenient to impliment. The only people that bug the rest of the forums right now, are the types of people who would spam the noob forum to gain access to the rest anyway, so your plan is really just an inconvenience for many and accomplishes nothing.
