Just noticed that. I thought that was something ProBoards did. I like it.

We have made some changes to member ranks, mostly in the context of new members being able to create threads: New accounts now have the rank 'New Member' until they reach 35 posts. Once a new member has reached 35 posts they will be able to create threads on any board. The 35 post rule for selling is still in effect, and is concurrent with this new system. The rules have been updated to reflect this change. The reason why we've made this change is because plenty of members simply sign up, make a thread, and never come back; whilst we understand this may seem restrictive it will only affect an extremely small amount of members. This also helps moderation efforts and reduces forum cleanup - espesically for those members who create threads about pre-exisiting discussions. This ensures members familiarise themselves with the forum before creating threads. Be warned that members that spam or make low effort posts to get to 35 posts will be banned at our discretion. Thanks

Well, seems fair enough actually. I just wonder how did you guys come exactly to 35 posts as the watermark in this case?

Not sure if this is the right thread, but shouldn't the annual Ultimate Avril Lavigne Rating have started by now? Or did I miss something?

Sorry for some kind of a spam, this sounds really epic from the one hand - but from another one I bet we will all justice only for AL7 in such a case =)

The Forum rules have recieved some formatting changes as well as a new clickable table of contents Hopefully it is much more digestable and easier to navigate now.

If you’ve noticed your warning level has been reduced or removed this is because we’re lowering some members levels which have persisted for years - and ones that we feel deserve a clean slate. Going forward, warnings will still be eligible to appeal, but depending on severity, staff may remove them if good behaviour has been demonstrated for a period of time We’re also looking into some changes to the warning system to make it better and less arbitrary - such as removing the appeal limit of 3. Watch this space on that!
