Is it possible to put a limit on the number of posts a user can make in a day?

I've just read through post after post of nonsense written by one user (I'll leave anonymous) who's got something worthless to say about everything. Perhaps a daily limit would make people think before posting utter drivel. I know I can just put this poster, and others, on ignore, but then I'd lose half the posts in a thread and have no idea what the drivel I wasn't reading wasn't all about.

I suggest 20. More than this and the person needs to get out anyway. I see today there are 20 people with 20 or more posts.

They're supposed to be a discussion, provide relevant information, entertain. They need input from members, but when I read 5 posts in a row from the same poster, the discussion element seems to have disappeared, and when the posts are drivel....

It wasn't you I was talking about though.

Sorry naboo, what I mean is more posts and hits the better generally for any forum.

Lets have a Poll.

Should the forum just be for posts asking where to get a pirate Windows Serial or should it be a virant forum?

Maybe time to introduce a "Don't Like This" button ?

A post has been removed because it contained vulgar language contrary to forum rule 3. Here's a clue. Just because you substitute letters with ampersands or asterisks it doesn't mean that the word is no longer vulgar. We try to keep Thaivisa family friendly.

Agree 100% but isn't that if the post doesn't violate forum rules it will not be removed, if the post is just obnoxious or Offtopic most of them don't get removed, but if they get removed, then only about 60% of all post will remain. So a better option would be the "don't like button" thumbsup.gif

Edit: // Maybe 60% is a to positive Number wink.png

Where do you find this info?

Top posters of the day is on the index page near the bottom.

Edit: Perhaps I should have said most frequent posters. tongue.png

Blimey - there are some people I've never heard of in that list! I wonder where they post?

OMG - I've done 20! Jesus, I'm out of here quick!

In my opinion, your subjective evaluation of a post as "drivel" is not something that should be reported. Instead: scroll down.

There are plenty of times I've seen moderators leave comments such as "nonsense posts deleted". Drivel should be reported as it clearly doesn't have a place here on Thaivisa.

oi!! one poster has 80 posts today already and it is not even midday!

excessive to say the least.

And probably none of them original either.........all that poster does is copy thingssmile.png

gossip differs significantly to observation. I made no speculation as to motive or quality, merely pointed out a fact.

gossip

Casual or unconstrained conversation or reports about other people, typically involving details that are not confirmed as being true.

I certainly wasn't referring to your comment(s) specifically but rather the entire general premise of this thread. My OPINION is that status quo of freedom to post as few or as many posts as you like is just peachy. Cheers.
