Heads Up for RPGers: New Post Limit

Due to a user who has been excessively spamming news articles and videos with an advertisement and coming back as a new user sometimes several times a day to do so (even after IP bans), the staff of Comic Vine have instated a post limit on new accounts (and as it appears, old ones as well). There is a post limit of five posts per day until your account has over fifteen posts. 

I was wondering. 

So just one user was spamming?

Considering how persistent this user has been, it is no wonder that Comic-Vine is doing this. I just hope it is temporary though. 

" He's done it over thirty times.  "

Good counter measure, sucks for the other users though.

LMFAO talk about being hardcore "

Now i know what this one new viner asked me about, like i seriously had no clue what the hell she was talking about, now i do :P lol

When I just started reading this, I thought there was a pre-determined number of posts and once you reach that, you're account is terminated. Phew. Yeah, spammers, trolls and other internet d-bags should be smitten from the face of the earth.... or... the internet. Whatever. Anyway, I applaud the CV staff for taking this measure to block these guys out.

What.

" What. "

Sounds fair to me

" @War Killer: lol BY MY SHOES!!!!! "

I've been flagging that guy for the past month... LOL 

Now I understand. And this is actually my main account now. (Such a sad fate! D: )

Bumping so that people see. 

Now i'm reluctant to log on to old accounts

Bump for the new RPGers. 

This is still in effect?

Luv CV, luv what they do, hate this f'n post limit. I'd rather have to run around and catch spammers then post five times a day until reaching 15 plus posts.

i blame trolls

I was wondering about that. I've made a lot of new alts over the past couple of days and i was kinda shocked at first. but 3 days to wait for unlimitted posting rights is nothing. freaking spammers....

it was changed,it is now 20 posts.

" @Gambler: There's a way around it. If you want it PM me."

I have 30 posts and still get the flood protection. Single most useless addition to the Vine.
