You should put in a letter counter and say no posts shorter then like 3-5 words, prevent spamming

Yeah I agree but I dont know how!

**playmenow** · 02-19-2006, 12:39 PM

once again, you're a new site....stop enforcing so many rules....the more rules you enforce, the more it'll annoy people and the more people it will take away from you.....i've been admin at many forums, i've tried enforcing all sortsa rules....trust me they dont work

**playmenow** · 02-19-2006, 03:54 PM

once again, if the commodity starts good it will be good. So, strict rules will be at the start...ermm...1 year.

**Quahog Crazy** · 02-19-2006, 04:58 PM

especially when the rules wont work because people are posting like mad because they want a free domain. nothing will stop them.

something can: the delete button right at the bottom (mod's buttons

)

You can change minimal post lenght in: posting_body.tpl. Find:

Code:

if (document.post.message.value.length < 2) {

Or something like this and change this 2 to bigger value.
If you want to change the msgbox find in lang_main.php:

Code:

$lang['Empty_message'] =

And change the text. I check this in phpbb special modification, probably in phpbb is this same.

I already used a Mod! Your Post must be at least 5 Characters long or you will get an error message!
