Default Another Off Topic Forum Change

this is being quoted from this thread in the rules/announcements forum. we thought it would be a good idea to post it here as well. within the next week this change will take effect.

Starting next week, a member will need a minimum of 40 posts to participate in the OT forum. As suggested, this will hopefully cut down on the drive-by spammers and those drive-by forget-the-rules-and-rudely-post people that don't take time to consider the rules of that forum and the general forum rules.

This should not hinder anyone that has been here for awhile and has a minimum of 40 posts. If you don't have 40 posts by the time this is instituted, you won't be able to participate in that forum until you do.

Caution: Do NOT try to inflate your post count for participation in the OT forum, nor the BST forum.

Also, for those that are having problems in the OT or BST forums, please remember that these forums are not necessary to your membership and the privilege to be in there may be revoked at any time.

Thanks for reading.

Dave
Thanks,
