How about if there is automatically system which prevents posting after 2 or 3 report ?
I will see if I can code something for this.
A good Idea but it may be necessary to ensure that there are safeguards against a troll attack; what if a Troll joined the board and reported everyones posts to prevent them from being able to post until a moderator cleared them, what if the Troll generated multiple accounts and reported a single post multiple times?

Just thinking of a worst case scenario here, don't mean to be negative.

At that point the troll would be found out just as quickly by the massive amount of reports that would be generated by one person. Besides someone would actually have to work extremely hard to report everyone quickly and from my experience most people like that are too lazy to do so. Besides Nytkos, Pyro, and Scott know who we are

you guys make me smile
and honestly, it's the best form of gratitude.

:D

hours of patrolling the boards & coming back after an absence...
then seeing everything is still manageable.

i am grateful to have such a strong team to work with,
just out of passion - no subversive plot / or monetary gain...

just people out there, working together...
[when they can manage]
to make an incredible game / free to the public.

it's like being a part of a crusade,
when the rest of the world is trying to cram ads onto your screen.

a huge thanks to the players,
the driving force behind this massive undertaking of a project.
