Thinking of bumping minimum post count.

Too late..

This forum is addicting enough so posting isn't hard to do here so I voted 100posts[Beer]

I honestly started selling and buying first and THEN began posting on the site after a couple of months... so I'm a bit of a hypocrite for voting for the 100 now that I'm here, but I agree that the influx of crappy ads and people just flat out not following the rules can be quite annoying.

I threw in a vote for 100, although part of me agrees with a previous post to just let the buyers/sellers post away as it will increase the chances of me buying something I want or selling something. Of course this is the only internet forum I am currently active on because I feel it is well moderated and, for the most part, is full of good people. I suppose the higher post count will weed out some of the riff-raff and keep this site fun to visit. [Coffee]

If you don't trust low post count folk, don't deal with them.

Strongly concur. Also, lower post count users tend to bring the deals to the board.

I've been pretty happy with the sale board, even before we went high moderation. 100 post minimum will positively gut activity. 50 is even too high, I think. 25 is the highest I'd go, if there has to be one.

Raise the count, but for members who have been here a while, say 18 months or more, grandfather them.

I wouldn't mind this one, IF, it worked in practice.[Bang]

Glad you found it entertaining enough to start posting more. Naw, I don't think you're a hypocrite.[Tooth]

Here's a thought... how about not being able to post something for sale until you have three positive feedbacks? If someone wants to sign up, buy a few items, and prove they are decent, reliable people then they will be allowed to sell their stuff.

Just an idea.

I think 100 would definitely weed out the people who just want to sell. I did not even know there was a certain amount of posts you had to have to sell or trade until I seen people complaining about having to have 15.

Agreed, It seems to me to only serve to reduce the amount of available firearms and accessories for purchase. If you think someones a joker dont deal with them. Much like everything in life more regulations rarely help anything and usually hurt.
