Wondering aloud: Does it make sense, to block any post with a ..turl... link in it? It's becomming a nuisance in my humble opinion.

I'll agree our current spammers are a nuisance, but I can't see blocking URL shortening services, especially widely used ones. There's plenty of legitimate reasons for tiny URLs, but I agree the spammers need to be dealt with when someone finds the time.

I have seen other forums use a system where users cannot post any kind of link or url without first having made a set number of "real" comments.

Not sure that's possible with this forum software though.
