Bravo on that suggestion. Like I said, most newbies for the past 5 or more years have come here strictly for the money and nothing else, and if any restriction(s) can combat the spam attacks by members of the lowest ranks, I say let 'em have it, full force.
I think you missed my sarcasm. By blocking the few good Newbies, this forum would eventually die.
Allow me to highlight what the Proxyban blocked:
Users whitelisted by me after a request I can't be sure if they would have paid the evil fee if I wouldn't have whitelisted them, but it would have been a HUGE loss for the forum.[/list]
