[Only registered and activated users can see links] No spamming to get your post up

Ok recently, I've seen so many new members just spamming to get their 30 post limit to access the sections they can't access it. Well I've warned before no spamming and people been doing it for over a month now.
example, I've seen people posting replies like these "Thanks.... , wooooo, ya thanks a lot " etc..

Threads to reply to should be there first yes to thank the uploader but also to talk about that thread, if you have info about that game, movie etc.. any update? Post them, not a post made of 2-3 word and move on. That is spamming. Now you wanted to spam, there is a section called E/N " Everything or nothing" U can spam there " [Only registered and activated users can see links]

So here is the deal. You want to become a dedicate member, upload something so you can earn your reputation points, so that you can access the restricted sections.

[Only registered and activated users can see links] How to upload?

[Only registered and activated users can see links] Your upload must have
A title
A screen shot
you can use ::
imagevenue.com For both hentai and non hentai
photobucket.com Non hentai only
Or whichever you like but I don't recommend imageshak as they block hot link and they show this yellow from.
Describtion "What is this thread about"
small detail like how long is this movie or how big is this game etc..
Finaly the download links.[Only registered and activated users can see links] Here is a simple example that a member is using, he spends the time to post like that so others enjoy reading the thread more and don't have to ask questions because everything is about the thread is mentioned there. Most good members do like that.

Ex:
[Only registered and activated users can see links]

__________________________________________________ ___________________________


[Only registered and activated users can see links] A] IF Any of the mods caught you making a thread just with plain links to get reputation, that thread will be deleted.

[Only registered and activated users can see links] B]Also if you think you can rep yourself to access the restricted section?
well, you can't! Why ?
Well first you need to rep 3 ppl and wait 24 hours till you can rep the next person again!
I've disable reputation in normal sections like the chat or the spamming section. So basically if you need reps , you need to use any of the download areas to upload something in order to receive reps.
Or the graphic section if you enjoy making signature or joining the sotw "signature of the week" But other sections, the reputation is disable in them, meaning reputation counts 0 points in these sections even if you rep someone, it will show rep but the points of reputation is worth 0 point.[Only registered and activated users can see links] How to get reps?

1- Either upload something in any of the download section. The uploading thread of yours must be in the correct section.

2- Or you can use this section for random uploads. Hentai, Anime whichever but no Pornography. Read the sticky before posting [Only registered and activated users can see links]

3- Or Help people in the request section to gain your reputation. [Only registered and activated users can see links]

I usually doesn't have anything to say much. And I only say "Thanks" to some upload thread that I like and I never use it to spamming. Guess I can't just say "Thanks" anymore :(
I understand though.

Good job Arika. I have seen this happen to a lot of forums that I have taken a part of. I may be new here and this is probaly my first post (lol), but I agree with everything you stated above. Good luck to you keeping the spammers down. :wakuwaku:

i agree with you if you dont have anything intellegent to say and your just talking to get your posts up then dont even bother posting at all for one it makes you look like an idiot and 2 if your that desperate to get to the hentai movies and games then you really need to get out more

sorry didnt knew that rule..was overexited when i found the website , some were no just thank message they were all different

well people will then edit their 'thanks' texts :)

but I don't think it should be a problem saying just Thanks.. cuz its showing appreciation.. theres no other way unless u want to write a whole paragraph of how much u liked the upload and why u chose to download it... I just think saying thanks and + karma is enough. nothing else should be added... cuz its simple straight forward and clear.

I'm guessing U HAVE to earn rep inorder to access that section now. I'm sorry to say but this actually may create more problems. because some users may be desperate enough to make 20 accounts just to rep 1 inorder to get into that... and other peopel will try to find their way around it..I mean comon 30 posts was something that many people did do inorder to get into that section. it will be just a circle of problems. ending up where u were in the beginning. >_>

I'm sorri, but I'm more of a consumer so i would probably do anything to get something good. i'm not much of a supplier so i guess i can't access that section no more.. Gotta find a new Source >_> atleast I still got anime =)

Bye bye fourms =)

I liked how it was before >_> this wouldn't have happened if u didn't put the 30 post thing. now the rep?

Once again Bye and Sorri for the inconvenience I have Ended up causing.

Just out of curiosity, and this may have already been asked/answered, but do your no-spamming rules apply to the DL threads that require a reply in order to reach the links? Because if so, it's a bit of a stretch to require people to come up with an informed and compelling response when all they really want is to download something. Plus, most of those threads already have like 5+ pages of "Thank you!" responses.

Guys and girls, This was just a broad idea for those who are known to be spammers, if it doesn't concern you, don't even bother with it!! just enjoy your stay here =]

P.S. I am not deleted no ones post nor anything. I've just restricted so these spammers , and they know who they are, could at least show a little appreciation, if they want something, they have to earn it the right way.

~ klaxon12 ([Only registered and activated users can see links]) Don't make it too complicated, you need reps in order to access the restricted sections, that is all. How to get reps, you must earn them.

As sandwitch said, I usually don't have anything else to say but "thanks" :)

I understand the decision and agree with it (but this limits our form to show gratitude), maybe a little solution is to have a check box to let the user to mark it when the message is irrelevant :) (and do not increase the posts of the user)

ps: the reputation thing is a great idea, but I'm not sure about the success rate of the system, usually people forget to vote, hope I'm wrong this time

I'm torn. I believe every post I made has thought put into it (I'm not fond of one liners myself) but while I posted constructive comments, I did so over the course of a day, with the intent of getting an avatar and accessing other areas. My point being, is it wrong to do it for the obvious reason, despite the fact that I'm technically not spamming?

In any case, thanks for providing a wonderful free forum. I frankly wish other forums I browse had the RPG implemented and such, it's quite fun to use ^_^

Oh and I recommend everyone tries the "element blue" skin. It's easy on the eye <3

This decision doesn't limit anyone, most of the forum is free. Only the HQ section isn't , I mean there must be some kind of give and take at certain point but the overall I think is really good concerning everything else is free and high quality. I don't think this is a big issue. Just like the rule says, you have to earn what you want.

So if you want to earn something extra , then try to go for it. And 10 points for reputation isn't bad, it is required 20 rep points to access those section. Any new member stars with 10 points as a default reputation. So really all you need is 2-3 uploading thread to get the extra 10 points = 20 rep point. Not that hard to do.

And to tell you the truth , that helps with limiting the bandwidth limit a little and reaching max queries . Which this forum suffers from it a lot. Some time you wonder why we get data base error ? That is because many users are browsing many sections. And I can't afford an expensive server right now. So I mean i had to do something to satisfy everyone.

I was just trying to understand whether or not I was considered a spammer despite the fact that my posts have thought put into them, even though they were mostly done in a day ^_^'

I'm a psp game uploader in a psp forum, so I'll make a thread. Thanks arika :)

Sorry to keep hassling, one final question: How do I gain rep power? So far my reps have been null.

You have a point Arika :)

without those limited sections, there are lot of things to see in this forum :)

More than enough to spend half of any life surfing the threads :)

I don't have any special interest on them, but I'm just curious... with a "paid suscription" can one user access to them?

basically i do not think that the "thanks" that some people reply is only to increase their rep.of course there are ppl ho do it for their reputation:1: but there are also ppl that do it because they really feel it :):wakuwaku::beautifu2:

Let me make a mistake first first, please.
I'm sorry.
Without knowing that there was division of a category, I was visiting directly.
Something by which you're given is a very good one.
I'll also support now, so I should be very much obliged if you can receive the reflection and the leave which are increasingly.
We'll also appreciate your continued support.
