Improving Babiato To Next Level

Millionaire said:

Hey all,
I recently joined here & found lot of spammers, leechers.
I got some ideas to prevent these people which I learned from some other groups, forums etc.

Fix for Spammers:

1. Have some small puzzle before signup - Prevents Noobs
2. Ask 2 line write up on why they need to join before signup. - Accept only if ans is worth - Can be done by moderators

Fix for Leechers:

1. Have a ratio of 30:1 or something like that. That is for every 30 msg, they should have min 1 reaction. - Prevents Leechers
2. Send warning to post a thread at least once a month

Appreciations:

1. Add few more trophies beyond 120

What do you think? Feel free to comment opinions and your ideas

Prevent noobs?
We all started as a baby, and we all have been a noob at some point.
I always thought part of this forum is to help others.

5 dollars, is totally worth it for the value the forum creates.

Maybe let a free section for people to experience before buying into it.

I totally agree. And for the sustainability of this online community, the "pay what you want" system is the best. It is a donation in the same time a system to value all effort, time, skills, hosting, and many others to make this online community lasting as long as possible. We bring the little "sugar" from our part to make a big tree like a "baobab" it is the picture in my profile. We bring our unicity to make the best of the bests online community. It is a family, some are wise and some are fool but with a great hope to make a better world we can arrive to our common goal with the right mindset as responsible digital citizen. We thank you guys like "@NullMaster , @TassieNZ , and some who can nulled the script" for nulling the Themes and items. We thank you guys who try to do your best to bring what you have like @Scorp which has helped the community to grow in skills (personally with fun I know how to use Procreate can share my mind with drawing to support my real community and online community, @barracuda87 for the biggest library of the world. Thank you guys like @navlem, (Grammarly) @ddpanda (elements Envanto and Freepik...), and @Millionaire (video editor), @rt5277 Screaming fog SEO tool and many others the premium account is really helpful. Long life to Babiato. Many thanks to all members. Babiato exists because of you! I still have 3 days to be one month old here and during this time I really appreciate this family. Thanks bro.

1. If you want people to introduce themselves and contribute, lock downloads until they have posted an intro, this is easily doable.
2. Only allow a certain number of downloads (maybe 3 or 4 updates) of the same resource. If a user is downloading every single update, then they're clearly familiar with the product and can make a decision as to whether it's worth the price for them.
3. Make the links to the original developers more prominent, with a clear message, download for testing, if you like it, go buy it. I found it hard at the beginning to see the original source and had to Google it.
4. I support having a donation system to support the site and maintenance costs, either as pure donations or in exchange for added functionality.
5. On some of the comments suggesting a pay what you like approach for resources, that's taking credit for the developer's work and profiting from their work.

Lets keep it free. The second a charge will be placed Babiato will die.
