Re: Bring Back Newbie Jail

Newbie Jail? What it actually is?

Newbie jail was before I joined: from what I understand, Newbies couldn't post until a Mod manually approved them. Many other forums use it, and it's annoying.

I came up with [Newbie scrutiny instead of jail] Every new user's first post: loyce.club/patrol instead: report or Merit them

There was actually a section that newbies were only allowed to post in and I understand that it was full of trash. Users could get whitelisted or they could wait until they met a criteria to be able to post in the main subs.

Imagine what are the chances for a legitimate user who is actually wanted to get into the forum and trying to give some contribution with such feature so called jail but thank God its not really needed just give the time for them to understand the system if we don't let them to post we can't get what an actual noob wants to know and obviously the merit system is more than enough to clear the spammers.
