    Over the past few weeks, I have been observing many New Members join the forums each day. This is excellent, for McBrawl is growing to be a very popular server. Now, we are all aware of the problems this causes. New Members either creating an Application when they first join, or spamming the forums in order to get the minimum (and by minimum, I mean 100 pointless and unhelpful posts) amount of posts. I am not naming names, but many New Members have been doing this. Now, I understand that they are impatient and want to become Moderator in the least amount of time with little effort, but this has to stop. The Forums is a place for Members of a Community to get together, come up with ideas, discuss topics, help Members out, and become good friends; not to spam an make pointless posts. So I am asking the members of the McBrawl Community to please, don't don't lose track of what the forums is for. Instead, remember what we are here for. Thank you for reading.

    Still, it's worth a shot. Hopefully this will get through to some Members.

    The ones that actually don't post a staff app RIGHT when they join might see this.

    I completely agree with you. But the truth is that new members are not reading the rules or guidelines.
    I don't think we can do much about that :/
    (But Dakotafiles had an awesome app tho) :stuck_out_tongue:

    I agree with you @Signatured, when I first joined, I never made a staff app. But seriously, there should be a patch and if someone wants to make a staff app, it would say "Sorry, you are not active as much, please try again at 150 posts". It would be so much easier for us, we wouldn't have to deal with the amount of staff app spams. Now for the post spamming, there should be a limit on how much threads you can post in a day.

    It's inhabited by chickenputty, mitchel, orange, and other admins. They WILL make a filter eventually to where new members cannot post in that section.
    Heck, I'll even tag them just so they can see this.

    This is way too important to be in off-topic. It infuriates me how ambitious people can be, even if it makes them look stupid.

    I won't say his name, but there is a particular player who's spamming the hell out of the forums. He had 80 posts in less than a day :V... On his first day

    I've noticed them (plural :V) too. It's sad, because they don't know what the forums are here for. It's not here to be spammed, it's here to help and discuss. I wish more people viewed it that way.
