Why 100 games played until posting?

Is it for spammers who get banned and then come straight back to flood the forums?

If so then it might be a good idea to prevent one person logging in with two accounts on the same browser just so they can abandon games! You could stop abandoned games from counting towards the total 100 games played!

I heard there are some really sad people who are able to bypass the 100 game rule in under an hour using the methods described above,

How about a few tweaks to put an end to this? I'm sure it's a very small majority of idiots that would consider using this bypass tactic, yet a simple patch to make the process a 'lot' more time consuming could easily be implemented.

See ya soon.

Lazy Dave.

You are complaining about people posting on forums? That's what forums are for, posting on! It is a 100 game's that has to be played to post on forums because it's the Funkypool rules, there's your answer.

Personally I think it should be more than 100 games.

But its there so people who post at least understand the game a bit before posting ideas and suggestions.

i agree it should be 100 games or thereabouts - but not 100 of a particular discipline.....

100 games should mean 100 games

Incorrect flumpy. If that was the case, the rule would apply to the game queries forum only.

The real reason is what the original poster suggested - to avoid newly signd up members from posting all sorts of crap on the forums, banned/booted players in particular. Having that rule in place avoids a ton of such problems.

And agreed Merv.
