Every so often a spammer takes the time to register for the site to post a spam blog. We have a fair amount of subscribers now, so by the time we have found the blog, it has often been sent out. So it would be helpful to have email notifications not work for first time blogs. (As an administrator, I would still like a notification so that I can quickly identify the blog if it is spam)
Or maybe there is some other way to create rules specific to first time bloggers to ensure that their impact is minimized?
I don't want to create additional moderation, as I believe people lose faith in sites that don't immediately publish their posts.
What do you think?
