forbid the posting of links

I don't know if this is the right place to post this,but I am getting pissed by spammers everyday,100 times per day.Basically,I want to know if i can(by options or any available plugins) forbid the posting of links for newly registered users for the first let's say 5 posts.After 5 posts they can do whatever.Every spammer comes in,registeres,confirms and then posts 1 mil links without any problem.I'll appreciate any help..tnx

What you can do is create a new usergroup for regular members and call it say "Full Registered Members". This should be created based up on your Registered Members usergroup. Then rename the original Registered Members group to "Newly Registered members" and adjust the permissions in it to make all posts go to the mod queue first for approval. Then create a promotion that will move users into the Fully Registered Members group upon the sucessful posting of x number of posts/threads.

This works really good at keeping trash from the public eyes of your members. Basically all new registered members will get modded posts until x number. Once they reach that they will be automatically moved into the Fully Registered Members group which is the copy of the "original" group and life will be good. :)
