Minimum of 100 posts !!?

[Niall]

Right guys this isn't just a number we have plucked out of thin air. Don't forget, you lot don't see a lot of the people who abuse this site for sales because the mods intervene but we can't always be on here to do that. 100 posts really isn't that many and the forum is not here purely for sales. It's a community.
If I opened it up for people to be able to sell immediately and people start loosing money to scammers then these people would moan as to why we haven't done anything to stop it. We don't have to do anything to protect you against scammers but we do to try and restore some faith in online sales.

Jesus, people moan when spammers arrive, people get scammed etc but then moan when preventative measures get put in place.


Can't a mod just lock this?

This. We will never please everyone unfortunately!

If anyone does have a particular problem with this, PM me. Those of you that were able to sell but now can't (so floating between 20 and 100 posts) PM me and case dependant I will manually upgrade your account.
