But who will I spoon then? :|

Yeah, I was thinking that too, have a section that you can only see when you aren't registered yet and just shove everything in there for them. If that doesn't work, then I dunno, give them a warning or something.

I suggested this on Dec 4th:

I know you guys are tired of all the new members asking the same old questions so I am proposing a "funnel forum". Upon registering they are allowed to view 1 board which contains basic information about the project and a FAQ board and maybe a question and answer thing.

Once they agree that that have read the basic project information they are moved up a rank which allows them to view the rest of the forums.

Here is the beauty of this rank system. If they ask a question they should already know the answer to, or spam or whatever, they are promptly downgraded to the welcome board with a few clicks.

Just an idea. I would be willing to moderate since I brought it up as not to add another duty to your plate.
