Only blue can post in drop thread...
Well here is how it is i reckon we should only let blue and above post in "drop thread" due to all noobs do is spamm it and don't no any of the rules about if most people that are blue are pretty well known over the forums and no how the forums work and what the rules are all forums noobs do is post drops and spamm the thread up and its more work for the mods to have to delete the post due to the forum noobs don't no how to and they won't waste there time reading the thread bottle made so i reckon we should move drop thread to special section...

Amilir be right. How about those with red or blue boxes are unable to post there. Greens only. Those who ruin it are negged fast anyway so nobody will ever screw it up twice.

If only blues could post there the drop wouldn't get posted a lot because I doubt there are many blues that care what the last drop was.

The last drop thread is for everyone. There are times when only non-blues are online to post the drop. They deserve every right to post there. The ones who do abuse their right get warned then infractioned, etc, and if they continue to post spam in the last drop thread then they run the chance of being permabanned.
Frankly - the last drop thread is public, and for everyone. Period. Things you can do are pm those who spam so they won't do it again - and at that point you'll know if their intent is spam or it is an honest mistake. |

This is the worst idea I've seen for some time. 90% of drops are reported by infrequent forum users, so we'd probably only get 1 or 2 drops reported every day. Plus it removes the whole idea of the drop thread being there for new users to be able to guess when the next drop will come.
