I see your point, 20 is probably too many, so I've revised my proposal:

Newbies must have 5 posts before they are allowed to post.

Girls are never considered "newbies", and may post any ol' time you want to

Yeah but what I want to know is: How do you get 10 posts if you're not allowed to post until you have 10 posts?

I think he proposes that you are only allowed to post in areas such as the Tech forum until you have a requisite number of posts. That way, you cannot join with a fake name just to come to OT and flame people. You would have to at least pretend to have some legitimate material to contribute for 5 posts in Tech.

Lets see how hard that would be...

1) Hi.. I have a 911 and need to know the firing order

2) Thanks.

3) What kind of plugs do you recommend?

4) Thanks again!

5) Do you guys like Mustangs? I'm going to OT to talk about Mustangs.
