i think the best idea is  let the mods  do the job and add more mods for specific section  to monitor the response of many new comers.   because if you restrict the account below member you put a limit  to them. as far as i know this is a forum that every body can share and can learn about bitcoin even there has many garbage threads, their account is new, evrybody here is equal. dont make their world become small.   how can you motivate them if you restrict their account. you dont the talent of every new comers here. how they can earn a merit from that specific section they want to post a thread if you restrict them.  sorry but i dis agree.
