Rule 13 Suggestion

#1

Post by puma guy »

I see a many deleted posts for violation of Rule 13 and was wondering if there is any way to put an automatic block on anyone trying to post in the for sale section without the requisite 25 posts? I'm not computer savvy, so I don't know if it that's even possible, buy if so it were seems like it would save some wasted time for the moderators.

I've seen other sites where they had a system in place where it prohibited you from even *seeing* the for sale section until you had a certain number or posts or had had an account on the system for a certain period of time. It probably was related to the forum software that was being used. I don't know if phpBB has this capability.

We don't want to block new members to be blocked from seeing it and being able to allow to purchase a firearm for sale or post a request looking for one.

I agree. I was only asking about blocking the posts not viewing them.

If we block them they couldn't make a Want To Buy post.
