However, in this case, www.iwflyswa.com has been a member for some time now, so newbie posting restrictions would not have helped.
Also, some newbies may have been lurkiing for a while, and just now decided to register to post. A two week waiting period could lose some valuable posts.

Isn't there currently a one-minute limit preventing people from posting multiple times in a short time frame? A solution could be to leave that in place, while adding another limit of 5-10 minutes for posting new topics. (If that is possible in the current version of the software.)

In the case of the recent postings, most of them were fairly relevant. (I had clicked on a few that seemed interesting.) However, the brevity of the actual post and the lack of signifiicant response made it nothing more than a waste of time.
