the anti-spam limits on new members on this forum really seem to upset a few people. Somehow the rest of the new user cohort figures out how to post 10 times and moves on. It just doesn't seem that hard to post 10 times in 2 days if you really are interested in bikes. If nothing else, there is the xkcd 386 effect, someone is always wrong on the internet.
The few spammers we still get are a pretty dedicated crew. They post 10 times without complaining.
