Hi,

Now that all the banned turds keep making new eb names and mucking up the place, I think it would be a great idea to implement a wait period before posting. Sure it won't eliminate all the trash, but could reduce the amount of time that mods have to clean the muck up and the spam bots.

Anyways, keep up the great work Mods.
pay via paypal, use credit card,file dispute at the 20 day mark if suspicious. don't deal with noobs. don't trade with noobs. request feedback ahead of time. there are lots of good people 'round here.

Is it even possible to have a "waiting period" in phpBB?

I dont think that will EVER happen, EB does not want to have anything to do with people CC info.

FWIW Heathunter would just create 50 handles (one per day) and as soon as the 30 day period is up he'd post under each new handle that is allowed to post. I like the idea but it'll just delay the problem. Also, I don't know how to end it all together nor do I have a better solution. Just sharing my immediate thought
NEVER PAY VIA PAYPAL GIFT. NEVER PAY FRIENDS/FAMILY. PAY THE FEES YOURSELF, THE 3% IS WORTH IT TO NOT BE SCAMMED

There's been talk of this before, i've seen it on other forums. I LOVE the idea. The PROS outweigh the CONS significantly, in my opinion.
