Just got 1 point for "spamming" for post count without warning...really!?

Forum rules are like Apple's terms and conditions. I mean if youre going to have a sticky that says "new-members-must-post-5-times-new-members-forum" at least put it in the body of that thread! Its common sense, especially since the thread says its a safety feature built in to prevent REAL spammers from spamming.

Come'on SON!
Kinda ridick if you ask me....

what were your first 5 posts, i made mines in threads like whats your favorite juice and what set up you got which are fine. think it annoys mods if people just post randomly to get to 5 as its easy to post something worth while really, even asking a question plus the reply's you will give back to people answering get you more then 5.

just one of those things mate but wouldn't let it annoy you, wouldn't of made a thread about it really as it is the rules and they must warn people so its not done again. better then just banning you isn't it.
