    Many iPhone sites have have this, i think its time to implant it here too. post to this topic with your message starting with "200" if you agree (sign the petition) maybe we can get Chris to make it so....

    Maybe less...maybe 50 posts. At 200...right now, you would not qualify to post in the buy, sell, trade forums.

    I agree actually. I won't really trust someone who is making their first post in that forum. Maybe have a certain time limit (ie must be registered for 2 weeks before posting in there).

    I run a Miami Dolphins site and wanted to institute this same policy for our forums.

    I think it should be 50 posts or a member for two weeks to post in the b-s-t. And I think it should be 50 posts or one week to post a NEW THREAD anywhere else.

    i'd say 75 post count and/or have a link to feedback from ebay or other forums for previous transactions.

    ultimately chris' decision. no need to petition for anything, if you have concerns or suggestions hit him or a mod up with a PM. chris has never been anything but helpful or responsive to issues on his sites.
