Tired of all those noobs,alts hiding behind a screen posting the same suggestion over and over again?
Tired of typing Use Search Function and asnwering redundant questions?

Well,wait no more,that is if they decide to do this.

My idea would be to put a minimum requirement for posting/polling for the Suggestion Box.

How?:

Implement a minimum post count and a minimum time joined in the forums to contribute to these part of the forums.
If your post count or join date does not reach the minimum requirement,you will not be allowed to post in here.

Why?:

Prevent those annoying people from repeatedly posting a suggestion from alts and other accounts.
Prevent those many single digit post count posters from posting "Great idea" or "I agree" etc. and then never post again
Prevent people from raging and trolling those suggestion threads which we have seen over 9000 times
Mods and GMs can now have an easier time moderating the Suggestion forums.The people posting now will probably be more experienced about posting suggestions,understand the forums more and also probably have a good command of English.

Cons:

1.Spamming in other areas of forums to reach the post count required.
2.Posting of Suggestions in other Forums.

Answers to Cons:

1.Of course the threads the spammers spam in gets locked and if they continue to do so,I guess it will result in a ban.

2.It's already happening.(E.g. Nerf Sins and Weapons Class Limitations)Close the threads?

Opinions people?

    Agreed. This and maybe make the changing avatar really change just your avatar and not your post count and registration date.

    Problem i have with this, often its people who come in with fresh eyes that can make worthy suggestions. While some may be redundant, some are new and offer insight. Have you ever had a problem and talked to someone outside of the issue to get a fresh perspective? We'd be eliminating all fresh perspectives this way and not allow them to post until they're beaten and lost their will by the system. Also more then likely noone will ever make suggestions for content below 70ish, as the older ppl just power level past it & dont care, and the new people, 1st timers through it, wouldnt be allowed to post.

    I think eliminating newbs from posting is like trying to fix a broken wrist by amputating the entire arm.
