    Yes, I do know that this suggestion does not belong in the page of official game content suggestion(s), bit I could not find any other play to suggest this.

    Something like An account should be "x" days or hours old enough to be able to post mods/mod threads in the forums
    So basically, today there was a dude who had apparently made a "bugatti bolide" mod by himself;
    > His account was barely a hour old when he made that thread/post
    > He had a .gif pfp, which showed that he knew about this place
    > He had the audacity to actually make a whole ass legit like thread to uhh idk allow people to download his mod?
    Well, this mod was a stolen private mod which had been uploaded by the user without the owner's permission
    People like this are the reason the forums get ruined, which is why I am suggesting this
    An account must need to be atleast a number of hours or days to be able to post in here, this will prevent/discourage alts and trolls messing around and doing dumb shit

    The idea is fantastic; unfortunately, modifying user groups and permissions may trigger a temporal anomaly and destroy the entire universe due to our forum software being very outdated and buggy.

    We will definitely consider something like this once the forum software can be upgraded, but probably based on the number of posts rather than account age. Sadly, I still have no ETA on when that can happen. :(
