Hi. I know I suggested a period of probation before allowing PMs, a while ago. It was shot down b/c people thought that UBB couldn't handle that feature. But I was on another UBB forum that had a minimum post before PM abilty kicked in...........I really think this would be a good idea.........would cut down hugely on the scam spams.
probation before allowing PMs?

I already had suggestion to mod and everybody and everybody disagreed, so I got no control.
My idea was for newly registered user would have some restriction and have some posting on hold pending on moderator approval, and until specific time passed by and/or they have posted approprated posting, then the restriction would be lifted. Well, this proposal I have died long time ago.

I'm sure that vBulletin don't have feature but you only have to tracking their IP address, that which is valid or invalid, ot require to valid before start activate or their account get delete. In Playstation Forum, Admin is report all scammers to their ISP that which affect their information and account from ISP, that will lose all from internet.
