Site Improvements Suggestions

Would it be possible to make people make say 5 posts before they can create a new thread? It may not stop the new breed of spambots but at least it should stop those stupid Apple and hardware adds popping up? Also the bots that do be banned, do they recieve an IP ban or just a points ban? IV had trouble with one spam message being placed in one of my threads the past 4 days
 
some how advertising bots are raiding this forum. must do something to stop these posts saying free Ipads , blahahahahah.

Well there the first gen, They only make new threads, so a min post would stop them messages. Not sure if its possible though. However now they have been just spamming random threads with links and a wall of text to try disguise it.

I believe the software we had in place to avoid those bots is outdated.
 
Im using google chrome, and the advertisement at the top of the page for a download for FM11 will not hide, there is no link on the word hide (If you understand what I mean?) Is anyone having the same problem and know how to fix it? Thanks.
 
just to note, I am also on Chrome and have had no such problemos. :)
 
Why doesn't live search work with Chrome?

Works ok for me in Chrome. Do you know what version of Chrome you are using and also what Operating System you are on?
