Recent changes on I-F to Control Spam / MIDs - Page 2

wow! good job...! i hope this reduces the spam! especially the ones created by site owners which advertise the links! 

Thanx...!! Plzz look in celebrities ranking system... Drashti Dhami's comments were deleted...

Thanks for the efforts. This will control the spam in a large way. One suggestion is pls restrict MIDs from sending PMs till they make a certain number of posts. We get some unsolicited PMs(p0rn or hate PMs) from these newbie ids with 0 posts which can be avoided. They can be banned if their IP is tracked.

Buh dont u think that it wud be unfair on those who haven't created MIDs and are just new people wanting to join the forums and have healthy discussions that they are only limited to 10 posts a day?

I dont think it will be unfair to them also as normally we have noticed that Newbies involvement on the forums is a gradual one and not like on the first day itself they start posting several posts. So for many it wont be an issue. And this will impact spammers as they dont have that much of patience and want to just post hundreds of posts on the first day itself.

And moreover these limitations are just going to remain till they are a Newbie.

So does this mean no one can make more than 1 account from the same IP address? 😕 And What if 2-3 persons from the same house wants to make an account on IF? Will it not work?🤔

thanks vijay bhai
 the biggest problem on IF is bashing, hope it will solve this problem

all rules r good but 10 posts per day for niewbie is not fair for new comers

Fair enough and i do agree to an extent that newbies are hesitant in posting when they join, gradually they'll start to post n get involved in discussions more.

Hopefully this will lessen the amount of unnecessary threads that are made n all.

Thank u for replying to me VB n sorting out this MIDs issue
