I completely agree with this. These will eliminate ICO bumping completely but the spamming will be there as the newbies can post anytime in the thread. Its just it will not go to the top.

What I'm suggesting is to put a rank requirement in the Announcement Section which is not bad I think. Putting a rank requirement there will completely remove the spamming of newbies and some Jr. Members in the section and in order for them to post, they must have a rank of Member up to Legendary or must be a Copper Member. Maybe there are some newbies who are posting good there but removing them completely is the best way for me I think.
