  @cryptonaut @kerneloops has been working on a draft for the site rules and policies. check it out here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1m62cFEqgiRVC0OKS5lvPJhIbRI_Z2v2OGPGN98WbKh0/edit?usp=sharing

  @bitsol the above is a proposed draft of 'rules'. It states: "Moderators maintain the right to add, delete, or edit users’ signature lines in order to eliminate spam."

  Do you have this ability now? Just curious.

  No, only the admins actually have that ability currently.

  Why can't I be an admin, how do I get that?

  admin = full power across the whole site, including control over all site content, blog posts and the front page, all forums, editing users or banning users etc... its more of a primary staff position, and we are not bringing on any new admins in the foreseeable future.

  I think that new spammers should be banned right away but people with 50 posts or over should get 1 warning, then get banned

  I noticed some spam robots that post lots of posts hoping they wont all get deleted, lets make it so if:

  if (post === old_spam_post){

  alert("no double posting");

  window.location="letstalkbitcoin.com";

  }

  I did this in javascript cause I feel computery today :) @cryptonaut
