Pretty much the title says it all. This will pretty much cut a lot of the spam accounts you guys get

He's talking about the forums I think xDMost of the servers being advertised are not advertised over links though. They type it in chat and spam it.
It would be seen as a message then and the 5-message system would not work.
Oh, is he? @Younisco are you talking about the server itsself or forums?He's talking about the forums I think xD
Yeah forums lmao. There has been a significant uprise with people who decide to send links of products / hoaxes, advertising it in hope to gain revenue. You would agree that this isn't the soul purpose of a Minecraft server forums, right? xDOh, is he? @Younisco are you talking about the server itsself or forums?
Still don't see why a link being posted wouldn't be seen as a message.
Yes, how to differ msgs from links then?Also, posting anything into forums will count as a message (apart from profile posts / messages)
I don't think you know what I am trying to get at :pYes, how to differ msgs from links then?
It's not because of people who bypass - it's mainly for the bots. People create spam accounts to advertise a product no matter what - meaning that it will essentially stop them.Example.com
Example. com
Exampledotcom
Example.c0m
Example .com
Example,com
Example.Gom
Example(dot)com
Example (d o t) c om
*Insert thousands of alternative bypasses that involve foreign symbols / letters*
The problem isn't adding this feature, it's stopping people from bypassing it :/
This last week I've seen about 8 people advertising products, which isn't exactly what this forums is for..At the very least, it would make advertising a little more difficult. It's a nice suggestion. I like it, but I'm not sure how necessary it is. I don't see many people advertising links on the forums, but then again, maybe I'm looking in the wrong places.
