did we change the policy? I thought no new threads until after 4 posts or something, to cut down on spammers.
Yeah, now we have moderators (who do keep us spam-free it has to be said), so we don't have the old post limit anymore.

Truth be told when I posted this thread I was in a bad mood lol. The vast majority of newcomers are lovely and I am rarely anything but happy to see them post and start threads. Ity's just that every so often a newcomer blasts in here with a 'controversial' point in the form of a new thread and it's the first time any of us have any contact with them.

LIke I say, I was in a bad mood. I don't really have a strong desire to curb newcomers. I was just pissed off :P

Be that as it may, HERE, it's the moderators job to keep out spammers, NOT censor anybody, even new posters.
