Spam/Nuisance Posts
Mon, 7 July 2008, 12:26 pmThis is an open post to the administrator of the site.
This site used to be a valuable tool for those of us in the theatre community to find useful information
and share our thoughts with others.
Of late, it has become a bitchfest.
I would like to see posts retricted to signed up and verified members only.
While this wouldn't stop completely the post hijacking that is currently destroying this site,
it would mean that you would need to take the time to sign up a membership, which could subsequently
be revoked if site rules are abused.
Obviously this is not a panacea, but I think will help this site grow.
I'm fed up with the crap!

Sorry, didn't mean to imply that you were: simply that other people might.
Forum rules? I haven't seen any. Even if there were - who reads them? Stats show most people don't read Terms and Conditions on websites.
I just think more regulation won't change people's habits or opinions. There's a reason why there's a moderation system on the site; so we can encourage intelligent debate and hide the lesser ones.
