Hi,
I have searched but have not found what I was looking for..
Was wondering if this hack has already been made;
New members, with the post count of lower then 5, do not see the "Click here to email *username*" in other member's profiles, not only do they not see that, they also shouldn't see the PM option, homepage, ICQ number, AIM sn, Yahoo! IM id...

My thinking is as follows;
Quiet a few members' intention for joining is purely spam. If we force them to contribute before they make any interactions with any other members, maybe that will decrease the amount of spam that is being delivered to current members. The reason for not showing other members' homepage is because if it is a personal site, people usually put their contacts in their "Contact Us" area, and therefore, the new member can just go there and find that info out.

Thanks alot, and hopefully someone saw this somewhere or will create it :)

Thanks alot bud, will from now on...
I can't believe all these haven't been brought up by someone else, this is the second hack I'm requesting heh.

Why move to vB3? It seems to be very different, i just got by vb license like 2weeks ago heh

if you only started two weeks ago i would have gone with vB3.
