Is there a way for the system to understand when someone posts repeatedly the same thing and refrain the user from doing it?

Hello,

To prevent users from copying right?

From posting the same thing 2 times in a row.

ex. POST 1 "Thank you!"
POST 2 "Thank you!"

Nothing to stop that. Sometimes that happens when the user click the send button twice.

We can't do anything about it?
I'm not referring to this "double posting" that happens sometimes... I'm talking about certain users who may post the same thing 40 times in order to see the "hidden content".
If those were spamming posts, what would we do?

Warn them? Ban them? Delete their posts?

I believe that is why you have Moderators in order to delete the messages and as well inform the user to stop that or he'll be banned. That is why you may or should have a Warning system in your forums [im not sure if you do or not] But that's my point of view.

So you say I should just have it as a rule..
I can do this.. BUT what happens when they post and I'm not arround?
It'd be too late to do something. They would have already gotten what they wanted.

Well,


That is why you have a extra staff member;

Administrators, Global Moderators, Moderators.

Global Moderators: The Moderate the Whole forums,
Moderators: they moderate a certain part of the forums.

You can make it as a Rule

All solved?

Not exactly.. but I took an answer to my question: It can't be done.
I'll mark it as Solved.
