all the spam messages I see (like the one this morning, and the parade of gummie
spam over the past year) have 10-20-more links sprayed down the body of the message.
Limiting zero feedback members to three links, should in no way impact legitimate
users, but it might slow down the spam kids such to make spamming here more difficult.

To do that they'd need to have some sort of filtering process, based on both
user feedback and number of links in a message. Is the forum that advanced? I
doubt it. It doesn't even filter swear words.
