Restricting Rants

[CronoDroid]

Rants is my home! It's like living in New Jersey. Not everyone's tough enough to live in Jersey, as they say.

Reg date is more indicative of who is new IMO

I'm for the registration-date idea. 50 posts is much if you don't tend to spam like most of our known people here.

I took cadet I, II and answered to posts when the answers weren't there already and I still don't have 50 posts, after 9 months.

Don't encourage newbies to spam like the vets, just to read in the secret forum. Actually I see the rants forum more as a joke-side than a real forum with discussions anyway, why don't keep it the way it is and let everyone participate?

This is pretty pointless.

But we all like it because we are elitist pricks.

hmm he does have a point, for those of us regular lurkers who post in multiple forums 50 posts is nothing, for a new player, thats alot of posts

[takingarms1]

Terrible idea. First off, the funny newbie goodbye bull@#(! rants will just get posted to general, like they are half the time anyway. Second, some newbies are damn funny and removing them from rants would remove FUN from the community.

Sadly I must echo MW's musings on this matter.

Great idea, let's encourage people to spam general and other forums instead.

Just buy allegrants.com and be done with it /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />

I can also see the really annoying forum voobs spamming the @#(! out of Rants the moment they get fifty posts if we do this.
