Ok, I just got this PM

Hi...i am sending you an invitation to join my new computer forums. I already have some good posters, and need more loyal members like you. i noticed you were a regular member here on neowin. My forums talk about more computer related stuff then neowin, stuff like modding, hacking, PC games, and we even have a flaming pit. We also have a new theme that a lot of people love. so if you have time to check it out, i would be grateful. i would also like for you to join us, because you seem like a nice person and a great friend. i hope to see you there.

I got two of them......sent him a very interestingly worded response. Why oh why would anyone do this? :unsure:

Because the can't get members on their own. So they feel by harrassing us they should get some good members.

I never get spam, guess they don't like me.

Is there a way to prevent new users from using the PM system until certain amount of days? Or make them have certain amount of posts before they can use the PM system?

If a mod wanted to , they can give me the URL and i can contact the webhost .

I know a few webhosts i could get the word round and get the person's hosting suspended and banned .
