Spam-O-Matic - Newbies Manager

[Matt]

Or should I create a new group for newbies spam-o-matic and promote confidence to the group of newly registered (ID 2 by default).

This is the way it was intended when we created this, use this option.

I shut off the system newbies promotions> new vbulletin register if I have the spam promotions system-o-matic? or I can create the same promotion in the two?
thanks

I would imagine that they work together, since if you make a newbies group, SOM would handle those promotions for that group, and vB would handle any others.
