    New "bot" to deal with?

    Just put http in your moderated spam keywords and such posts will go to approval queue. But it would indeed be nice if empty posts with only a qoute would get get blocked. The user shouldn't be able to submit it at all. Maybe @Xon can address this in his Signup Abuse addon. Its getting quite...

    [XB] Paid Registration [Paid]

    It would be very useful if guests would be able to access the account upgrades page. The AddonFlare addon had this functionality and it was very useful, because links to that page are posted in forum. Guests will also follow it. Instead of having two links for guests and members, have one link.

    XF 2.3 How to make it clearer for members that they need to select a thread type?

    About half of the new threads posted in my site are Questions. But no one selects the Question Thread Type on post new thread page and everyone posts a Discussion Type.
