    new members



    how about new members introduce themselves in a welcome section- they would have to talk about their work history/experience-then they can be let loose on the forum- my idea was based on the useless shisters who try floggin phones and promoting a crap link to a fault code list- or alternatively - suspend hyperlinks on new members till they've done 50 posts

    Suspending hyperlinks on new members till they've done 50 posts would certainly help.

    Hi IM
    I'm with you, we might only end up with genuine posts by those looking for help.

    Best regards, Josip

    It's impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenious...

    Don't ever underestimate the power of stupid people when they are in large groups.

    Please, don't teach me how to be stupid....
    No job is as important as to jeopardize the safety of you or those that you work with.

    Re: new members

    Sounds a good idea. It is used on other forums and it might prevent some of the unrelated usage of the forum.
