I understand the main purpose of this thread - I've seen way too many Newbie accounts creating threads and never coming back. It looks to me like they're creating new threads using alts whenever their main (or alternative) accounts are out of threads to reply to. But I don't think there is much to be done about it.
First of all, Newbie jails shouldn't be a thing - I disagree with that 100%. Newbies being jailed inside a single board strictly for Newbies will lead to a board full of crap where everyone will shitpost and burstpost until they're free on the forum.
If a member wants to shitpost and only boost their account's rank in order to become sig campaign-eligible, they will provide high quality posts until they'll be eligible for campaigns after which their accounts will turn into shitposters. We can take the strictest measures out there - if that's my intention, I'm going to be willing to find any way to get through the ranks until I'll reach my goal.
The number of newcomers to the forum is getting smaller every day. Introducing new restrictions in the fight against users abusing the rules of the forum and normal human behavior in order to earn money, we will infringe the rights of real beginners.

Very wrong way of seeing this forum. Yes, there could be from time to time a subconscious "oh, I must do this to get $" thought but let's face reality. This forum isn't a job and whenever someone tries to go only for the money, it turns pretty bad for the respective member. It's quite easy to differentiate a member who works hard on the forum from a member who is here just to shitpost for the BTC they can earn.
