I'm late here but maybe this community should become friends only? Seems like a lot of assholes are really abusing the community.

I tend to agree with you on that. I would say it's still up to the moderator though.

Yeah I'd definitely like to do that. There are a couple things I'd like to change about the community and I've tried to post it twice but it was so long I'd come back and finish it later on and I'd end up closing the window...and its just becoming a procrastination. Anyway see I made this community, didn't really pay attention for about 3 months, because I was never around to, then I was in a program for 11 months, just coming back a month and a half ago, SO what I'm trying to say it I am new to the moderator process and have no clue how to make this friends only, or is it just everyone's responsibility to do that to their own posts

freinds only

I think you can disable posting access to users that you have not approved.
faq 79 - membership and posting settings for communities

Try disabling non-member posting

and either:

(1) enabling either Membership type:Moderated community & Moderation:Unmoderated (so you have to approve new members to the community)
or
(2) Membership type:Open & Posting Access:Select Members (anyone can join but you have to give them posting access before they can post)

I haven't ever managed a community, but that's my best guess.
