While DL's seem pretty rare (from what I've seen; the mods may know differently), the vast majority of the ones I've seen have been created to troll the OT forum. Wouldn't a simple way to reduce this sort of thing be to require a certain number of posts before you can post in the OT?

That would drop apolytoners from 40,000 to 400 I guess
I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

Maybe they would start trolling here to meet the posting limits?Que l’Univers n’est qu’un défaut dans la pureté de Non-être.

Rquire a certain number of posts before you can start trolling?
I wonder if it is even possible to restrict posting in a certain forum by the number of posts? Besides it would limit the legitimate users that register only to sp... post in OT.

Hi...........
As this has been posted about 3 minutes after skywalker has kindly DL danced with myself, I thought I might as well give an opinion.
Post count and valid comment are different things.
Besides, who cares about DL's if debate/exchange of ideas/alternative viewpoints is seen.
If some of the posters here have DL's and they are fun/ provocative, yet remain within the regulations.............
Well, seriously, who cares?Comment

Well, but think about who would want to make a DL? Spam sharks. Why would they want to troll this place with their DL? They would rather do it with their main account and get the +1 (or more like +10, before the mods get here). So, sky's idea might just have some merit.Originally posted by laurentius

If you set up posting restrictions... people would just spam the on topic forums. The whole idea of the OT is to keep spam and off topic discussion out of the on topic forums...
DL's aren't really a major problem. We don't actively hunt them down unless they are obvious or unless they cause problems. If someone creates a DL to troll... insult people... or get around a restriction, then we hunt them down

Technically speaking, using a DL isn't within the regulations.Originally posted by flipside

So if I created a new DL named "GhengisFarb's DL" that would qualify as obvious?Originally posted by Ming
