wtf with the spamm?

[Trokinos]

There should be some basic spam prevention in the forum system.
Many "free" boards like zetaboards have such things, but here it looks like it's just opened doors to spambots, making the moderators cleaning job difficult.

A few possible things :

- impossibility for a new user to create a new thread until he reaches more than +/-10 posts
This is often used in boards and help to avoid many not yet banned spambot to create new threads.
Additionally the good thing about PPSSPP is that to ask about an emulated game, there's certainly already an existing thread, so a new user that is here mostly to ask something about a game don't need to create a new thread and will just have to post into the existing one.

- delay of between 10 and 20 seconds before an user under +/- 10 posts can post a 2nd message
This would be used to avoid a spambot hijacking an existing thread and posting consecutively many spams to reach the limit so it can create new threads

That unfortunately will not prevent those bots to act, but should slow them down a lot and so make them a lot more manageable to ban by the moderators, as they should not be able to fill many sub boards with all their spam.

Something that can be helpful to block new spambot is a CAPTCHA for people creating new accounts.
While some spambots have their account created manually by people paid for that, there are spambots that have automated account creation, and those would be blocked by a CAPTCHA
