After five posts, posting ability for that member (not including mods, of course) would be "locked" until the next day. Some people accidentally overpost, some just don't care. This would take care of both problems.
I'm afraid that isn't an option in the software that is used at the moment. :(

As Jamie says there are no mods that allow this. However, I have found one which I am putting in the next forum software. It allows me to set a minimum word limit so people can not make posts with just a few words in it. It's quite cool. There'll also be more stuff for your profile, buddy lists for private messages and a slightly new look!!

I think it will be in a week or so as I am going away for a week as of Thursday. Maybe I will fix it up before I go, but if there are problems and I am not here....

Cool. Are we going to be the same rank, and have the same amount of posts, or are we all starting as newbloods?

I dont know if anybody is noticing this, but the forum is getting pretty good again. We got people posting a lot more on the warrior movie thread, and they dont confuse the game with the movie. Also the posting is getting smarter. This is all thanks to kartoon for making these topic, and the members are thinking what to post now. So thanks kartoon, and thanks warchief, and all of the other cool mods.

one suggestion is combining all the off topic sections into one. 
this means music, books, TV, movies, pretty much that whole section should be on large off topic section.  basically, if it ain't about the warriors, then its automatically off topic.

this is how i would set it up....

warriors movie 1979

warriors movie 2006

warriors video game

warriors merchandise

warriors books, fan fiction, fan art

off topic, everything else goes here.


honestly, i don't see the need to have so many different catagories.  this site is about the warriors and truth be told, it only got bad when these off topic and general sections were created.   theres nothing wrong if people want to discuss off topic stuff but keeping it all in one section and one section only. 

the reason why this site was(yes i'm saying was) cool is because it was centered around the warriors.  i don't know if anyone else knows this but, the downfall of most fan sites is when they decide to have a off topic section, which turns the site into a free for all.  you get all kinds of idiots posting nonsense and arguing about the meaning of nothingness, is that what you want this site to be?  another fan site turned into someone personal blog?  cause thats what its turning into IMO.  so how about we go back to the roots, how about we go back to the warriors, and clean up this mess.   

once people start to realize this site is strictly dedicated to the warriors and all things about the warriors, they'll go elsewhere for their off topic discussions.  seriously if i had it my way and this were my site, i wouldn't have an off topic section at all.

IMO is short for "in my opinion".
