Ok I have a idea for the for sale section to stop like thoes new e scammers comming in, Is it possible for mods to allow people with like more then 25 or more then 50 posts the ability to start threads in their and people with below 25 can only view the adds and send emails and post stuff?

New users in the buy/sell section idea? (1 Viewer)

nah systems like that are not that great for forums, they are a lot of work and usually have problems.
I think the only thing that would be good would people with less then say 50 posts can not start threads in the buy/sell section.

I'd agree if the problem was greater.
But currently it dosent happen that often, maybe once every 2 weeks, if that. If it was more frequent then sure, id be all for restricting new people from that forum.
But such restrictions should IMO be used when other methods have failed, and the problem is frequent.
Perhaps though, a few moderators could be assigned to B/S (As i think its only Supermods and admins atm?)
Also, the advertising/scamming isnt exclusively confined to Buy/sell. Ive seen it in Music, IT and Non school.
