First of all, sorry if this is a pearoast, but I just wanted to ask how come a seller or someone wanting to post a wanted ad has to have 250 posts?
I understand that forums have to guard against spammers, fraudsters and the like, but 250 posts is a heck of a lot to some folk. I've been registered on R-R for about 6 years, but only made about 5 or 600 posts. Likewise I've been on the OMOC forum since its inception but only made around 1000 posts.
I know some folk spend a lot of time on forums, especially those who are involved in running them (sterling job they do too). But for us mere occasional posters it's pretty frustrating and makes life tough. Also, it's limiting opportunities to anyone looking to buy from those people, or for low posters to reply to wanted ads and help the spirit of these forums along.
Is there any thoughts to look at the limit, or is there a way I can get an ad up on the forum and would I be able to reply to it?
Cheers muchly!
