Nearly 30% of posts being submitted are in violation of submission rules (see sidebar). Posts that violate the rules will be removed. Some of it is definitely shills, and some of it is just users who aren't reading the sidebar rules. In any case, this is causing "forum sliding" (the time of our users is being wasted wading through bad posts). Note that shills do this kind of thing intentionally to try to disrupt forums.

To make the job of removing bad new posts easier, we are look for a few more mods. Please message me if interested.

Thanks, all (except shills. shills go suck a turd).
