Restrictions on new member posts
-
I know this has been brought up before, but we really need some sort of restrictions on new members when it comes to posting messages. I just went through 8 different posts from the same member [^] that were all advertising type posts. The member just joined today and posted a bunch of messages in the forums and some articles advertising for his/her own site. Looking at the member profile, the profile is also advertising.

Yep. Some guy did the same thing on my article. He registered with CP just so he could say he was selling a similar program to the one that I was providing for free.

No, it was a different account. It's the only message rated a 1 on the article.

Actually it's a really nice piece of software. I'm not going to name it, but it really is an elegant thing. I'm going to take his list of features that he so kindly posted in the forums of DSGraphEdit as a bug report and incorporate it into the the next release. I guess that's the best I can do for now.
