My First post ... Gaming and Textures

very disappointed to find out what these online forums have become . people want to connect but you can't ; because the people running them forums have made it practically impossible for actual, real humans to participate , deeming us all BOTS , ROBOTS , ALIENS , EXTRATERESTRIALS , WE NOT REAL APPARENTLY. I experienced this here, i found this community I wanted to join, so I went through the usual steps: I registered and handed over my personal information for free. In exchange, I didn't get access or a welcoming experience. Instead, I got punished, thrown into a digital limbo where I need to beg, jump through hoops, and prove my worth just to make a single post or look at a link. The excuse is always the same: "We have to protect ourselves from spam." But how does treating your actual users like digital criminals build a community? Do you guys honestly think real people have months of free time to waste on nonsense forums just to unlock basic features? The logic is completely backwards. Instead of actually tackling the spam bots and doing the hard work of moderation, these forums are choosing the lazy route. Let's block and alienate the real members who want to contribute, while the bots eventually find a way through anyway. Why should real users be punished? Why do we have to prove our humanity to a website we're trying to help build? If you run an online community and wonder why your active user numbers are plummeting going down, take a look at your own rules. You are not killing the spam; you just killing the community. re-think...i will not spend months begging in messages to prove that i am human it's ridiculous. post 100000 messages then you get basic member benefits , no thanks i'm good Update : down is the first Toxic message , so we using our HIGH LEVEL to bring people down and tell them to delete their accounts. because why even state about a real problem , you want us to post 10 messages per day for the rest of our existance. it takes also MONTHS to get the normal member benefits , 5 messages don't cut it... why so toxic ... why
