Don't post email addresses or Links
« on: May 03, 2015, 09:32:29 AM »
MR is under a major spam attack right now so I had to strengthen several security protocols. This is why you haven't noticed anything dramatic but I have just noticed it has couple of downsides too. Usually I  manually weed out spam but right now the forum it self doing it.

So right now if you have less than 20 posts and post outside link or email address then forum could categorize as potential spammer and remove your account.  It can happen even if you have more posts than 20 but the forum won't take you as a threat if you have been here longer and/or have lots of posts.

Well this shouldn't be a problem since we already have rules about links and emails.
