Title: Guest posting policy change Post by: *DAMN Mauti on May 31, 2006, 08:34:01 pm Due the recent amount of spambot posts we are forced to change our guest posting policy.
Since the beginning guests were allowed to quickly post without creating an account or loggin' in, because in my opinion it can be very annoying if you have to create an account just to ask this one question. Times and bots have changed so the new policy allows only guests to reply to excisting posts, but not create their own topics. This permission may also be removed if spambots upgrade their AI.

However spam bots started to reply to posted topics, and so I also removed the guest reply permission. Bye, Mauti |
