The new rules
The website has been (and still is) attacked by spammers and as a result of this the new upgrade site has some new "rules and regulations". Here's some of the restrictions that is implemented as a result of this:
- New registrations are not possible (yet). But will come later
- New members may only post in a few selected forums (like the introductions forum)
- New members posts and replies will be moderated (They will not show up until a moderator have approved them)
- New members and thos with less tha 40 points can not post Links, URL or images. They are not allowed to have posting signatures.
- New members can not use the PM system (private messages)
- E-Mailing is removed and member-lists are restricted
- Posts with certain keywords, phrases, domains and other rules will either be rejected - or put up for an moderator to approve
- A more strict timespan between postings are enforced. So you have to wait a certain amount of time between each posing, and you are only allowed a certain number of post each hour.
I am relly sorry if this seems a bit strict... But it has proven to be neccessary... After all we want to keep this site available for all of you that has fun playing with The Sims 2.
