Beware of the new type of spam, hidden in the bounty proof of registration.
Just an idea, how about implementing a limited account access for brand new accounts.
Meaning they must reach total time logged in : x number of hours;
or a requirement to be invited(merit), before brand new accounts can write, post.
or limit their post to the beginners & help.
This is only a suggestion.
Lets suppose you are the owner of a company and you want to advertise your company on this forum. Also suppose you are an skilled individual and you come to the forum to advertise your services. In both cases, you will not be interested in spending time on the forum and ranking up/merits doesn't mean much to you. If we implement you proposal, we will limit these newbie people from using the forum and it will not be good for the forum.
Please remember, that all newbies does not come to join the bounties on this forum.
