With all of these spam attacks, I'd also like to make a suggestions:


 


1) No new member may make new threads until 100 posts.  (Just need to make sure they don't spam some active thread with 100 posts.)


2) No member may make more than 10 new threads in an hour.


3) Captcha only applies to new members with less than 500 posts and 1 month as member.


4) Admin will review & approve moniker of each new member before user can create new threads.  (spammer is currently pretty obvious.)

I thought of this but they are using different member names. The only thing is that you could reduced the total number of threads created on the entire forum. Traffic is so slow around here that it wouldn't really affect legitimate posters much.

True... but there are heuristics that can check to see if the same thing is being posted over and over, regardless of the user posting.  (It just needs to be careful not to flag quotes.)

the bets way to get back at the spammers is to trace them at the sorse and ban them from this site.

>Perhaps when a member has exceeded their hourly quota a little box will show somewhere to tell the poster they have x number of surplus posts on hold for admin review or the system can automatically log them out and not let them back in until one hour has elapsed.
Once every six minutes??  When people get on at the same time, we sometimes get conversations going - very easy to surpass that.

Not quite that easy if they're going through a secure proxy or using a dynamic IP address (which is most of us.)

This idea isn't new, but it is extremely easy to implement: Admins, look at the site each night. That's all I'm asking you to do. Look at it.

I have an idea: Admins. Hire them. Find them. Put them to work. Please.


Ahh, Kirk, my old friend. Do you know the Klingon proverb which tells us revenge is a dish that is best served cold? It's very cold....in space.

If the conversation posts take less than a few minutes to type , it can't be much of a conversation and is probably spam designed to boost post counts IMO. 

 

Like that post?

Regarding Fandom Levels:


I'd like if on the profile pages there was something between "I catch an episode now and then" and "I never miss an episode." Some people, such as I, have seen most if not all of a particular series, but not of every ST series.


I know it's a small thing, but I just think there should be something between casual interest and completionist.


Thanks : )

Show: Stellarage ( April 13, 2029 ), instead of a meteor problem such as Apophis. The problem is of low primative animal race which convert the planet for it is own food supply. The additional problem is intelligent, but emperial creatures battle for succession over others territory and supply, instead of working together with all creature and their resources to be use in order to at least tie or break even in the conflict for the survival in the galaxy. The vessel identify by government name, destination name, and registry number: Unionfication Earth 1. The vessel is configuration of the United States Enterprise, Carrier Vessel Neucler 65 and it is officially call Stellar Shuttelcraft Carrier with 500 of the Shuttelcraft Fighter, design from the Eagle Fighter Jet 15, and also the housing cockpit in each call Shuttelcraft Pod, design from the Cobra Attach Helicopter 1 and that is for starter. I am jfelipe and the idea is from Andromeda. The consept is of a potential race with the ultimate goal to be at least a unify creature as that of the United Nations.

hiee all,


newbie here , however i would love to have chat interface or an IM system in here,


it would be awesome to have "chat nights" and get everyone to know eachother better, also a great idea would be to allow people to add friends/buddys, and have a friends list on your profile, ..one more thing that would be great is personal photo gallerys to post pictures of yourself/pets/children/etc..other than those things ,i cant think of anything else..GREAT SITE!!!!

I agree Sherry.  Having some sort of chat ability might make for interesting conversation. (Not to say what goes down on the boards already isn't interesting....)
