I'm looking into not allowing newbies to post new threads until they have X amount of posts. Perhaps that will force them to ease into things a bit rather than just jumping in with both feet.
I agree with Andy to an extent. I do feel this would be a really good idea. I was a member at another forum that did this, seemed to work well. My personal suggestion would be to keep X somewhat low, like 20-40 ish, otherwise it might inhibit people from being members. But hey thats just my two cents.
