Poster Doping

(Oldest Posts First)

Is there any way that Admin/Mods can introduce some sort of check on posts made to see if the poster is on the dope? The number of users seems to have increased in the last number of months given some of the contributions made. You could introduce something simple like a close up photo of someones hands and fingers that comes up when they hit submit. You then have a box they have to click to move on and get the post up but with a timer against it. Those not on the dope will click it within the time limit and get their post up (provided content passes moderation) but those on the dope will be fascinated by the fingers for such a period of time that they will end up being timed out and not get to post.

Won't bother patenting this - call it my gift to mankind.

Check & see if your tea was spiked, if not get as quickly as possible to a doctor for medical intervention.

Sorry - I hit reply to respond but then noticed how nice my own fingers were and now forget what I was going to say. Did I tell you though that my fingers are nice?
