I too copped this "Buddhist" SPAM. I like the idea of setting up a new user group to prevent this from happening on my board again. One question, where in the admin panel do I locate the option that enables me to set the number of posts members of this new group must make before they advance to the next user group?Comment

Disable PMs for groups 2, 3 and 4. create a new usergroup that can't do anything but using PMs.
Now use the promotion system to promote users (to this group as a secondary usergroup) after reaching a certain number of posts, days registered or reputation points.Syrian Medical Society - mi la do - My Hacks - vCharset converter - Projects Queue

Sounds good, but when are your users moved to a usergroup that does have PM privs? And how does it happen?Comment

Stephanie has just registered on my site, and he/she ( whatever else) has sent pms to about 50 users.

The pm issue is;
Hi,I'm new here, how's it going?"Buddhism has the characteristics of what would be expected in a cosmic religion for the future: it transcends a personal God, avoids dogmas and theology; it covers both the natural & spiritual, and it is based on a religious sense aspiring from the experience of all things as a meaningful unity" - Albert Einstein---Stephanie http://stephanie.275mb.com
That sound's goodComment

She's a tool.
Came to my site, we caught it right away since there is a staff member that investigates all new members. She sent them out, we deleted them and warned her, probably before 80% of them were viewed.
Came back a month later, I thought this was a personal joke from a twat I got rid of before, and she tried it again, so I personally banned her and left her a message to remember.
She has not returned.Comment
