i to do fear that the spam will hide it self, however, one spam in the sea that is a thread is not a problem, whereas clogging the forum with spam is. the minimum also has to be ignored for the Tilted Newbies forum.

I'd love to have the search function, unfortunately, you can only lead a horse to water, how do we actually force the user to read through the search results. maybe a friendly reminder just before they post on their first 10 to 20 posts?
