User Abuse
No, I’m not talking about abusing the wonderful Today.com users.
We just had our first real case of a user abusing the system and we are not even officially live yet! 
A guy, let’s call him Richard, registered dozens of blogs over the course of a few hours and immediately put “for sale” signs on all of them. I have to give the guy credit for trying but that was just not cool. We emailed Rich to notify him that we were going to be taking the “blogs” down and he promptly notified us that if we did we would be breaking International Blog Laws and would report us [to the Internet police?].
Gave us all a good laugh, but because of that we are limiting the number of blogs you can register to 1 for now. Extra blogs will be by request only. I know there are still ways to get around the restriction, and people will do it, but now it will be a smidge harder.
