I'm sure this will work, though you also punish the members who do not spam.
Wouldn't it be better to keep the forumgold/post and punish the ones who spam by taking away xx forumgold and put that forumgold in some kind of gamble contest? It's a more complex solution but it will result fine too, I believe.

Well, as long as the spam gets reduced it's fine to me, it's just the way I would deal with it. smile.gif

Regards.

That raffel thing sounds like a good idea Sing.gif Also an idea you could get .5 fg for every 3 posts ><..

lol thats more then it used 2 be, before it usually only .1 per post in some sections

anyways i think its a good idea to keep away spammers

i don't really understand how the ammount of fg is calculated. Just a few min ago I had .90 fg, then i post a moderately lengthy post and I jumped to 1.2 so far it seems like I got .1 gold for shorter posts. then that one got .25 fg
since fg is removed i should not get any in this one, i understand that part. if there is a link about this, please post it, otherwise if you don't mind, can you tell me how post length will affect fg earning. I doubt i will ever earn enough fg to do anything, but I have some stange curiousity about the way things work.

Thanks,

Maybe new members could have post restrictions mandated by mods in a way to limit the amount of posts per day, it has appeared to me an a couple others that there are ppl that join and mad spam which cause old posts of there friends to be bumped and spams such as these
All of the following are quoted from old threads no names to protect from flamage
So by trying to explain to me that posting something like that should be done via pm - i'm guessing because it either bumps the topic or takes up forum space, you do the exact same thing, instead of pming me with an explaination of why I shouldn't do it?
That makes alot of sense.
And as for my original post, sorry.

quote forum mod who entered thread
I am a TM it is my place to show others the mistakes.
Your post brought about the one after you, and mine.
really nice mod for no verbal or warn for that very lucky guy that time for sassing a mod We have all had countless breaks again an again.
They have been very patient with this restriction.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As well as there should be some due respect to all the forum mods here an programers and the vets who have made this work so well in past years Thanks alot Guys.
As for the Fg post issue it would be nice if there was a little Fg recieved for posts from members with more then 1or so years in Ð2jsp forums there are a ton of ideas but only limited ways to set this pobably that .05 fg was not worth the spam true but when see somethin good has transpired = now that fg has become valued from others hard work the ones who are desperate with ill manner seem to abuse it and wreck it for everyone, it appears to be society's default when faced with a challenge to be lazy in life and do whatever thay can for a buck the e-z way if thay can't succeed at what thay try and accomplish through hard work.
after all To accomplish great things in life on must not only act, but dream.
the spamzors should sleep a lil more, if ya ever do read this or think to come here when you see no more +fg after each post(s) then mayb one day we can recieve fg again, really "spammers" you hurt our feelings I'm sure alot have helped you before please don't take things for granted cause the min. you so it's taken from you and many others suffer along with you as we all are now.
thx,

...Ð2jsp forums there are a ton of ideas but only limited ways to set this pobably that .05 fg was not worth the spam true but when see somethin good has transpired = now that fg has become valued from others hard work the ones who are desperate with ill manner seem to abuse it and wreck it for everyone, it appears to be society's default when faced with a challenge to be lazy in life and do whatever thay can for a buck the e-z way if thay can't succeed at what thay try and accomplish through hard work.

Why did fg get so valueable? From what i've seen the past 6 months, fg has gained value from people with mass hr's (dupers possibly) trying to compete with each other to sell the cheapest hr's. I dont' know if i'd call duped Hr's hard work.

I finally got my first warning for spam by wishing good luck to everyone when the patch came out, which I thought was lame. it was all the spirit of knowing that blizz hasn't forgotten about us and in the hope of better things on D2. I read through the rules right away and have only broken them that one time. People don't read the rules and that's the problem.

Here's my solution. Have an application quiz to become a member. Make them read and be able to answer questions about fg, spam, what can and cannot be traded, etc... Make them learn before giving them the ability to post.

A lot of the spam is new members asking what fg is or trying to trade illegal items. Once told that they can't trade the items, then they start to flame.

Also, posts like ".1 fg so this isn't spam" or "Great find, sorry for spam" should result in fg reductions. Maybe add a "spam" button to each post like the "quote button" for mods. If a mod clicks on that button it deducts .1 fg or something and sends a message to the user saying what post caused the deduction.

Taking away the .05 fg per post is not going to solve the spam problem.

wow, this going to be hard, and huge impact on the economy epsically for traders.....


honestly FG is only good for trades and only reason why i loved FG was it wasnt REAL money involved, now it cost real money to get FG for trades.... why not just go to ebay? sure your saying you dont have to buy you can post, trade, what not...... but i guess if the mods and nj really thing this is the best way to go fine.... i just really dont think it is.


hell i was a donor in 03, before u had to donor a cent b/c i believed in the project, and i was never put in the grandfather class, but i never once said anything. now money for fg, and 25 for a key and just to buy fg...... sure you need money to keep this up I UNDERSTAND but im really truely hoping this isnt for anybodys POCKETS. dont get me wrong i think u should get money for upkeep and time for the programming..... sure but i dunno.... maybe im over reacting
