Another fantastic idea from StormChaser.
However, I think yorbrick has a point, in that newly signed-up members are often
those that are of need of help. We all know how it is when we’re new to something;
if it’s too troublesome many of us simply give-up on the idea and move on.
I don’t know what the current sign-up rate is, but I believe I read from another
post, it’s fairly high. Which would overly burden the volunteer moderators.
If it were me, I’d feel the need to offer compensation to said moderators, if
I were to ask them to take on the added role.
Maybe an amendment to your idea? Restrict new member's (however "new" can
be determined) posts to the “Help” topic only. At least until a level of activity
is reached by said member. This would restrict spam post somewhat, or at least
keep them confined.
Ryanme, also has a valid point regarding this issue. Why not let the mods use
a demarcation “Deleted” when dealing with such posts?
-IMHO
