Should we allow everyone to post links from day 1?
Foreign language posts about university degrees and passports?

We probably get >10 new users a day who are known spammers, or from known spam IP addresses. We could let them pollute the forum, but then there'd be very little left about contracting.

It's a tough call.

Pollute the forum???? This general (to be said in a we are SPARTA voice).

OK, real world example, I am about to approve a post, because the questions and wording in the post seem genuine.

But there are a few key reasons why I suspect the poster is not who/what they claim to be. Let them go for now, monitor their posts, and see where it goes from here.

It went far enough.

There are only three types of people:

Those born in Yorkshire.
Those who wish they were born in Yorkshire.
Those with no ambition of betterment.
