I mod and admin at two different forums and I don't even know what the fuck you're talking about.
Explain.

simply don't allow new members. The other board I'm at (thesmartmarks.com) isn't allowing new members at the moment

That wouldn't work.
I can see using it while the site is getting cleaned and shit, but since we're not that big of a community, I don't think we would be using it anytime soon.

It would make perfect sense, most of the noobs just post once or twice and it's all junk. I think it's a great idea:)

But if they only post once or twice, like you say, then where exactly is the problem? The only thing that'd keep those posts up is peoples response to them anyway...

But they are still shitty threads, and they delete an old one. I mean "the one and only vs thread" is gone, I can't find it.
What is the point of having a forum if nobody can join it? I think that defeats it's purpose. I also think that certain members who are so offended by what a few newbies are posting should just learn to ignore it, unless it is something which is a direct attack on the current members. The term "Spam" is open to individual interpritation. What you may think is useless or boring could be intresting to somebody else, and vise-versa. Just because you don't like what somebody who is new posted, that doesn't give you the right to say that they shouldn't be here. If that were the case, you would be the moderator, which you are not. So, on that note, I would suggest that you stop splitting hairs over the newbies in this forum, and find something more worthy of your time to contemplate. Life OFF of the computer is a great place to start.;)

Okay, know what? If we locked new members, then banned these guys, they wouldn't be able to re-join as someone else.

Lol! Final Solution. It is funny you chose the phrase the "Final Solution" which was also used as the name for the plan to execute all of the jews in Germany.

Maybe they'd post more than once or twice if they weren't called pointless, childish names and told to Fuck off!!!
Some of us just want to talk to a bunch of people who have similar interests, but instead end up reading childish gibberish from what I assume is a forum full of "adults". Maybe I'm wrong and your mainly whiney teenagers!!
Either way it's a shame that there's a small percentage of you that are spoiling the experience for everyone else, maybe they are the ones that shouldn't be allowed to post.
