2. As long as you haven't got too many guides, then you can post a couple of *Reserved for guide* posts, though if you plan on having like 5+, then just split them and post them over 3/4 posts or group them into similar groups and post them in separate topics.

1. Yes, they will disapear. Somebody once gave me rep then deleted the thread -.-

2. Probably not. You could though, make your first post saying "Do NOT post until I say so". Then you could do something like make 20 'Reserved' posts with the last one saying you can post. And then aslong as you fill them up, I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be spam.

EDIT: Oh, what I said for 2. is what mixster said :p

That would work if you got permission to do that or warned someone so they don't think this guy just posted 40 posts in a row within 2 minutes or something. Theres no function(that I know of) that allows a certain person to post in a thread and only that person, without access rights(eg. mod/admin). You could just do it and try to do it quick, and if someone posts in the middle of your guides have a mod clean up the thread or ask the used to delete his/her post. Like Runescapian said put a warning at the top and if users don't obey it then mods would probably infract them :cartman:

Just make how ever many posts you need after you post your topic.
e.g
-topic-
post (message in post "reserved for more guides"
post (message in post "reserved for more guides"
post (message in post "reserved for more guides"

If the site has a flood limit you may have some troubles.

That reminds me…There's a 60 sec limit you have to wait in between posts, so make your warning very clear ;)
