    To be honest, I think like than half of this community Leech. Some just lay back and get whatever they can get. Some contribute at the same time. I think that the mods should lock some forums until you reach a certain post count to unlock.


    Forums that need to have restriction:

    Runescape Guides: I have noticed a lot of guide ripping in the last 2 weeks.

    Runescape Cheating: Less victims of being directed to a phishing site, or downloading a keylogger or trojan from newer and less trusted members.

    Black Market: I have noticed many of the Guests that browse Sythe everyday are mostly lurkers. What I mean by lurking is that they will try to add your Msn or Yahoo, and most likely impersonating a staff member.(i.e Cheddarbeam,R2pleasent)






    Like for example:
    This is what the locked forum will look like if you are a new member:


    Runescape Guides
    *Locked, Insufficient post count!*

    So thats basically my suggestion. I think people should contribute more than take without any contribution.

    Good idea in theory, but this probably will just increase spamming.

    This'll never work. It increases spaming. It also prevents people trading and such. In theory it works. In reality it won't.

    Don't make from sythe another wannabe blackmarket site like RealPoor.Com - That site has restricted access, and it's completly fail - everyone spams just to get post count.

    Yeah everyone will just spam to get post count.

    I think we should just keep it as it is.

    It would increase spamming, and it would reduce profit for Sythe as those 100+ guests would not be viewing the black market at most times....

    It should be fine if you just scan it right after you dl it... if you take precautions your computer will be fine.

    We allow all of our members to use sections equally... If we limit access by post count or something similar, they'll just end up spamming other sections until they have enough posts.

    If you see people ripping and breaking rules, please report it.
