ok, I have IPB 2.0.4... I have my site and forum pretty much sorted out. let me explain: This site will be used as a mega RPG (Role Playing Game), tabletop edition, you know, like IM RPG where you write back and forth about what is happening in the story. Well, being that I will host multiple RPG's, there might be a chance of noobs getting into the story and spamming their ass off... then we have to clean it up, and a big hassle if he/she does it multiple times. Should I set up different subscriptions for the different RP Games? then what if one person wants to play more than one game? I'm at a standpoint here... thinking of how to do this **Note: I am not recruiting anyone, I am just asking structure support.** **Note2: do not comment on my idea, i have it set, just help on this.**
i loosely understand what you are doing. You are basically making chat rooms amongst your users doing a table top game sort of like DnD, correct? If this is the case 2 1/2 minutes may be too long as when you hit battle it often gets players making very quick decisions and limited them to one move per 2 1/2 minute period is horrible. I do, however, like EagleZtrike's idea of having certain levels of trusted members. However you can go one step further and the more trusted they are the higher up games they can be involved in. That way you keep regular membres at a regular member chat room and the spammers will be filtered out there. This helps in more than one way. If you do indeed have spammers, this will provoke members who actually want to play to become moreso trusted quicker to be moved into a higher bracket. Ultimate you will be able to get good members into a good chat room in 1 month a member and the spammers can spam eachother to death and you simply go through on a nightly basis and delete the chat file for the spammer chat room. Pretty simple
