Due to the recent increase in spammers signing up just to spread links to their lame sites, I've made some changes to how the forum works:

- You must have 25 or more posts to be able to put links in posts or PM's

- You must have 25 or more posts to be able to fill in the optional profile information (ICQ, AIM, MSN, Yahoo, website, location, occupation, interests & signature)

I can't see it being a problem, as any genuine member will find it easy to make 25 posts and then have access to do these things, as for the spammers, :alienflip:
