Minimum Post Count to Post in For Sale Section

[GETGONE]

Hmm I seem to remember suggesting something like this about a year ago and Brian shot the idea down! There's a ton of one post wonders on here that drop a for sale thread then never come back. The worst part is they don't even reply to questions about their for sale ad!

I like it!
I know of a few other forums that won't let you post in the for sale section till you have 50 post in other areas so I think B is being fair when he is only looking for 30.

You need to have cedit or you are just a scammer

So your saying that they need to post in there own intro thread 15 times to be able to post somewhere else?

That's how I read it to, Brian can you clarify for us?

correct me if I'm wrong, but this is what it will look like

Post 1: Member Introduction
Post 2-15: Anywhere EXCEPT classifieds
Post 15-30: Anywhere EXCEPT cannot create For Sale thread (can reply to parts/cars for sale etc
Post 30+: can now make there For Sale threads

I like this.......

Gar, I didn't re-read what I wrote when I posted that unfortunately. Was in too much of a hurry to go to bed.

While I did not specify the information correctly, Adam was dead on.

Wrong, Only threads they have started until over 15 posts

See my correction, no need to tell people they're wrong when I was incorrect with the information in the first place.

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to announce a new feature that we've added to the site. Moving forward, you must have a post count of 30 to be able to create a new thread **IN THE CLASSIFIEDS / FOR SALE SECTIONS**. Likewise, you must have a post count of 15 to be able to reply to a currently existing thread **IN THE CLASSIFIEDS / FOR SALE SECTIONS**. When a member with less than 15 or 30 post count tries to reply to a thread or create a new thread respectively, they will get an error message like the first attached image.

Secondly, to post or create new threads in any forum, you must have at least 1 post count. Thus, the first post MUST be in the Member Introductions forum. At the top of the page for all members with a zero post count, they'll see the message attached in the 2nd image.

While it may seem a little restrictive, we're truly just trying to encourage more interaction from people on the site who do not post a lot.

Thanks!


*** UPDATE!!!!! I'm a dope and didn't re-read what I wrote. Please re-read the first paragraph with the bigger text being the emphasis.

Well he said "correct me if I'm wrong" and I did. I wasn't trying to be mean just trying to get people to understand what was originally posted. Thanks for clearing things up.
