How about having the first post of a new member being approved by a moderator before it gets posted?

With so many accounts now having dynamic rather than static IP addresses, does blocking an IP really do any good?

With all of the spam recently, I like this idea. But the draw back is Z-Factor probably has a real life somewhere He probably doesn't relish the idea of screening all first timers. From what I understand the pay is pretty low for being a moderator All kidding aside, Z-Facor does an excellent job for all of us - Thank you

It may or may not be possible with the forum software, but what about having a prohibition period of say one to two weeks where a new member can't post or send IM. Perhaps not perfect, but how likely would a spammer wait for a week or two to send spam.

Just kind of thinking outloud.
