Disclaimer: I know that the new registration measure started just now. So I'm not actually sure if there exists functions or plugins for this suggestion, but here goes.
A new member should be limited to create only 5 posts (including threads) per hour. This restriction would be lifted once the member is a member for a 12 hours, while already made 10-15 post in total.
For maximum efficiency, this sort of restriction should be unseen unless they attempted to post their 6th post. This in turn will catch a spammer off guard, limiting spam and giving more time to ban them.
I know that this might be an inconviniece for non spammers. So share your thoughts about this restriction method.

5 posts per hour is WAY too few. Example: You go on the forums, read some threads, suddenly you see someone post something you want more information about. You quote the post. You continue your journey, only to see a notification bubble with a 1 in it two pages later. You click it and see the user you quoted is online and responded. You want to know more, so you quote again. And again. And again.
While this isnt spam at all, you'll probably get much more than 5 posts, all within an hour.
Personally, I think the limit of 1 post per 10 seconds is enough, maybe set it to 20 instead, but otherwise its good

Instead make it so you have to wait 5 minutes between each post/thread if you're a "new" member. How does that sound?

Search in every single trashcan in north korea. In one of them you will-- oh wait wrong thread OT: This idea may catch off a lot of new users off guard. How about 10 posts and 5 threads per hour? That sounds more balanced.

No, that's a very bad idea because if someone's active, this will just limit them to 10 posts. Me and other people would rather have a 1 minute cooldown between posts because IMO it's fair and it protects people from flooding (at least partially).

"This restriction would be lifted once the member is a member for a 12 hours"
Why are people ignoring that statement?
