Please help, PHP programming needed for this forum

Can someone write a bit of PHP code to allow anonymous posters to post on this type of forum?
Some important information that helps Gnutella has been posted by anonymous posters, and this should continue.
Flaming is a problem on any forum but places like slashdot still allow anonymous posting.
The new idea is to simply "hide" a anonymous post, leaving only a small link that people can click on if they want to.
When you click on that link, it opens that message and presents three buttons, "it's a flame" "approve" "needs editing".
If enough DIFFERENT regular users approve the post, it's posted, otherwise it's rejected and removed.
Another feature you can add later is a selection in a users settings to always show the anon posts.

To do this, you may want to look over the code and developer forum at

Please help out!

better start a new gnutella forum, for everybody to post and with good mods which sort the out the troll brawl.

That would be a good solution for the short term, but a simple program mod would allow all the users here to help control spam and flames and the mods could relax.

Are you a PHP coder?

there is "Report this post to a moderator" (which only registerd users can click).
but hey... we should all avoid to visit websites where you get popups, blinking banners and forced to register. last is a sign for a strange policy and new visitors are not that much wanted.

You have to avoid a lot of websites then, what do you suggest how CycloCide should pay his bills? Will you pay them for him?

I am not sure but I think this has something to do with the vBulletin software!

New visitors are welcome, at least I welcome every user if registered or unregistered...

I think this is unfair, CycloCide offers here a free side he don´t ask for payment or something else, this side helps thousands of users... and you complain about some ads - download a pop up stopper...

And registration is really no big deal, what do you loose?

You should know that the mods of this sides here don´t get money for this and if the users are registered its much easier for us to overview the actions of the users and we recodnize the bad guys very fast... if you have better solutions I am all ear...

I will

Why not try a donation system instead of banners?

IMO, unless Cyclocide is on some type on impression system, it doesn't seem like these banners would draw much revenue. I think it should at least be tested, if it doesn't work... back to the banners. I would donate, anyone else?

The donation system doesn't work unless you have user loyalty.

The banner ads are hybrid CPM/CPC/CPA.
