Well, I lost my account! :wall: But It happens, I know first hand what happens, It happened to my forum that had about 1000 users when something like this happened, resulting in my forum failing. So Stan, Don't worry we're sticking beside you! :holdglass:

The FBI is currently examining my signature. They'll release it when they deem it's not a threat to national security.

I know your busy fixing things Stan but when you get a chance, 2 suggestions.
1) Members need X amount of posts before they post in the EM4/EM3 Mods section.
2) Force members to vote before seeing poll results.

Oscar, you should have access to all your posts again.

If everyone registers with the name they had before I am able to re-attribute their posts.

Xplorer, what amount of posts would that be?

There would have to at least 4000 users that were deleted. Hopefully there weren't to many regular visitors.

I think either 50 or 100
I thought what I'd do was pretend I was one of those deaf-mutes.

Well I was going to let you decide that, thats why I put an X in there as in whatever number you felt appropriate. I think Gerard is on the right track, 50-100. If your wondering the reason I suggest it, it would help keep the "I cant do anything at all, but I want to start a mod" threads down in the mods section. Now granted they can post it in Modeling and Modeling help instead, but seems like a better place to but that kind of spam and try to keep the Mods forum strictly for discussing mods.

Way too high in my eyes and will enforce people to spam just to be able to post there

Correction, I meant to say they need X amount of posts to start a thread, not reply to topics.

But most of the contents of mod threads is spam anyways. 90% of it is "good job" or "awesome" or something useless.

4000? Do we even have that many users?

Board statistics shows 6980 at the time of posting. It was a while ago that it went over 10,000.

Doesnt the use of ranks encourage people to spam as well? Just the other day I had some one refer to me as "a high ranking officer" as if being an Assistant Chief really meant anything.

Yes it does, so why not remove post count from the template? :)

A forum without ranks and post count is not a forum in my eyes :) And to be honest even removing the post count, the ranks will not get away spam posts and the bunch of "good" "want to see more" "looks cool" posts
