  Spam by new accounts promoting drugs etc seems to be a recurring problem.

I suggest that a feedback rating of 1 or higher be required to post in the forums,
or new accounts could be prevented from creating a new thread for 30 days.

If limited to those with feedback it will turn away many users why are looking
for help and if putting a limit on how many days before they can post wouldn’t
help as then the spammers would simply lets accounts sit for however long before
using them

Im super grateful that I didn't need feedback before posting. There are so
many users on here with tremendous encyclopedic knowledge that provide valuable
support from years of experience.

I can ignore some spammers. Much love, and have an epic day!

So new users with issues are banned from getting help?

I agree somewhat but see an issue where new buyers with questions are blocked
by this.

A solution might be a captcha (only for your first post) or account activation
per email.
