I know it's possible, 'cause I've seen something like it on other boards/groups I belong to, just not sure if the format the HAMB was built on will accept something like this... LIMITERS are set into the program to limit the "bots" applying to a site, and actually "look" at the information sent by "member" to see if it is legitimate info to be used by site. In other words... a limiter would give a newbie with no posts a "WARNING" when they tried to post like- PLEASE POST AN INTRODUCTION IN THE APPROPRIATE SECTION OF THIS MESSAGE BOARD, THEN YOU WILL BE ALLOWED TO POST IN OTHER AREAS. Then one setup in the cl***ifieds to read- PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU MUST HAVE POSTED 100 ENTRIES TO BE ALLOWED TO POST IN THE CL***IFIED SECTION... PLEASE COME BACK WHEN YOU HAVE COMPLETED THE REQUIRED POSTS. Does anyone understand what I'm trying to say? I run into these all the time, and they work well. I'm just tired of all the spammers, and I know Ryan, Rocky and Rashy all have better things to do than try and filter all this ****. This might not be compatable with whatever design program was used for the HAMB board, but it would be worth looking into. I posted this in the "general" section too, just wanted to touch all bases.
