Has this forum ever thought of instituting some kind of sale block until the user has been either a member for X amount of time or has contributed X post that aren't meaning less?

I know some other forums do this to attempt to cut down on BS sales and so that people don't get burned so bad. Hardocp.com does this.

Just idea... I was looking through the good/bad guy area.

 

also, what about a sale area for non rx-8 stuff?

 

your first idea has been brought up many times before and it hasn't really gone anywhere. that's really a function of a paid forum, not a free one. i dont think theres enough money pumping into this forum to implement that kind of thing.
your second idea has also been brought up 835238529 times. non rx-8 parts will never be sold on this forum. ask any mod or admin. it just creates too much of a shitstorm and really cheapens the site.
