this hack was created for those test forums to prevent people from spamming just for a higher post count.
and
you can have a place users can test ther sig. all day long without the post even counting.

it is not my hack it is Sub Zero hack i just add the cp part of it.

That's pretty much the point. There are forums where you have to have a certain post count to enter, or get certain benefits, and this keeps people from spamming the test area or another area just to get a status or etc.

Edit: Thanks for getting that posted, ClanKiller. I've been tied up with a couple of major projects at work (Creating a Database system, and an OS/400 upgrade). They've even been keeping me busy in the evenings eek

Would it be possible to edit the hack for the entire board, and to allow users to "freeze" their post count at will? Or at least allow the admins the ability to freeze someones post count?

WASSUP!

Hey Sub Zero and ClanKiller, love this hack for spam killing...Am I mistaken that you only need to add a few lines (in the mod) so that it extends beyond just 2 forums? Looks highly possible.

THANKS!

I may look into that if time allows me to do so. This hack was inspired by test forums, and how some boards make you have x posts before you get avatar or custom status.

Thx for this is a great hack, was just what I was looking for. smile

As PrimeTime I would love to be able to make it work with more than 2 forums, would be great if it would be possible to add just 1 more forum. smile

When I try to set a 2nd forum where posts shouldn't count, it wont work. Can anybody confirm that it works for them?
