[REJECTED] Forum Suggestion: New Forum Users and Staff Apps
Posted: Fri Apr 12, 2013 10:36 am
More suggestions for you! And a much shorter suggestion this time.
Why not prevent new forum users from starting a new thread in the Staff Application section until their forum account is X amount of days old? They could reply to existing threads in this section, in case they want to support another user trying to become a staff member. But they would not be able to start a thread unless they have reached the required amount of days to do so. The "New Thread" button would be removed and replaced with a message stating that they could not create a thread until their forum account is X amount of days old.
I guess this doesn't really happen often, but I have noticed it somewhat recently. And it would keep unnecessary threads off the front page.
Now that I think about it, someone probably already suggested this. Well, if so, I'm bringing it back up. Thanks!
