    For God's sake, mods. PLEASE make a no new threads rule...you cannot post a new thread till you have posted, say 20 comments and been a member for, lets say 5 days...this is re-damn-dicus

    Oh boy, so now they have to spam 20 posts before they can spam a thread!

    could be, but a lot of those first comments are people asking for help...maybe restrict their thread-starting abilities to the help forum (if that's possible).

    It would be good if they could post only in Genius Bar - that way (potential) spam would be limited to one forum.

    As much as I like the title of the Genius Bar forum, I think it should be changed to something more obvious like the "Get Help Forum", or something to make stop posting help questions in Current Hardware...

    I like the name "Genius Bar" as it makes me feel special when I somehow manage to answer a question!
