i think that when the Newbies join up they should be restricted to one Forum (name it nOObs if you have to lol) or just give them access to General Chat. Then give them a week in there before releasing them in to the hands of us Regs. Once they can prove those committed to posting then move them in with the rest of us. Those who show there ok but then Spam as soon as there with the rest of us should be banned as soon as. They would have to post regular though, not just sign up then leave it for a week then expect to be moved with us….

Ok maybe not possible but something should be done.

Agreed. A pre-emptive restriction of where they can post based purely on being new is a bad idea.

Alienating them like that would most likely scare away potentially good posters.

I really think it's a better idea just to give the mods temporary banning powers.

I'd like more restrictions on newbies until they prove themselves to not be morons.

A restriction on where they can post sounds good :)
