Then you'd have to constantly make exceptions for each thread. they don't have to embed the image, they can just post the link, I don't see an issue, or maybe new users can have their embedded images put in spoiler tags automatically | ||

Like others have said it's an easy exploit that can hit a large number of people at once. I don't follow LR threads as they're actually happening much anymore...but something like this is getting me to consider dropping the habit completely. | ||

Maybe it's just me, but I think TeamLiquid can afford to forsake ethics just this once to get rid of this despicable a person. I wonder if it's possible to contact his ISP about it or something like that. But then again what he's doing is not exactly illegal. And even if it were, if this guy lives in Russia or maybe a third world country, the ISP wouldn't give a shit. :/ Either way I still support this idea, as well as any other idea whose goal is to deal with this no-lifer. It's hilarious yet sad to see how hard he tries to do damage to this community, almost to the point where it seems like if he cannot browse TeamLiquid his life has no purpose whatsoever anymore. | ||

ISP and IP related things won't work because of proxies, although there are javascript tricks you can do to block proxies, the easiest and most robust way is by post count | ||

Off the top of my head: - map makers will want to post pictures - new tournaments will want to post pictures - people making interview threads - people wanting to contribute to SFW pics thread So yeah, it would make some people annoyed. | ||

All the issues solved. Now whether this is possible to implement or not, I have no idea about. I know nothing about web design. | ||

I like this, no one ever embeds images in the tournament forum anyways except for OPs, maybe all image embeds in that forum should be spoilered besides OPs of course | ||

It's clear that these trolls are going for the most popular threads, so maybe the post-limit is only necessary for General Forum, SC2 General and SC2 Tourneys. | ||

- If user has <25 posts, and his post is reported >2 times within 5 minutes of posting, then hide the post pending approval by moderator or something like that. Obviously any solution should not affect teams and tournaments making OPs, but there seems to be plenty of suggestions that could help with the problem. | ||

Where do we need to sacrifice CPU's to the altar of RICH for some magic to rain hellfire upon this shithead? The report button does not function in the way mentioned in the quoted post, but it could. The problem is, a lot of people would still see stuff even if all it takes is a few reports. In a LR, people are F5ing constantly. | ||
