I personaly don't mind these topics created by guests (either if it are members who wanna play or just random people), but I sense some irritation by other members.
Probably our great staff has thought about it but just to open the discussion in general.. ofc a solution can be to either no post is allowed by guests or guests can not make new threads...
As i stated before I don't mind and the barrier for new potential forum members is lower when they can post first as guest.... however, if people really are irritated it can be a solution

Deal?! Also whoever agrees to it just like this post so I can make the petition, more the likes, more support we get, less the spam |

Simply making it a rule won't stop guests |

Simply making it a rule won't stop guests the solution was to limit it as much as possible, I don't think it will be successful or not but we can give it a try |

It's simple though don't allow any guests with anything to do with Mountbatten in the name since they have been causing the most annoyance

All fora has this For a small forum like ours, that would be insanely detrimental to any type of growth we want as a community. |
