Is there a limit on the number of new posts you can do in one day?

of course not, but they may be a limit on threads you post, to stop spamming.

I mean some of these new posts for help per person are getting insane....You should be limited to like 5 (ballpark number) because this is a two way street. You need to also provide help and not always ask for help.

It was stated in the news letter that new members are able to post, but their posts are not released onto the forum until they are evaluated by the mods first. Again, to crack down on spamming issues and time wasters.

I can say it, but why should I? I believe General Talk is the perfect place for this...

Proberly because the Pro forum has 10 threads on the first page by the same person, which might be concidered a little excessive.

it's cool to hate

It's the user's perogitave to act responsible. Rich shouldn't have to go to such ridiculous measures. There are already a full arsenal of tools for making sure trolls don't get the better of the forum.

yes not to mention Rich said if we send him user info of someone being a spam-tard, he will put their account into "new" status which will cause your posts to be Mod Approved before they are displayed on the forum - regardless of your prior rank.
