    I agree, this would certainly decrease the number of Scams.

    This suggestion is not only on the do not suggest list, but would not help at all. It would only slow down scammers, not stop them

    If you are slowing it down, you are pretty much doing nothing.

    Like i have stated, you cannot stop scammers unless you get rid of trading altogether.

    Then then would register a ton of accounts, then come back 1 month later for the spree.

    You think I am a scammer? I do not like it for simple reasons:

    1. Spam
    2. Very easy to get around
    3. If they can not view it, Sythe loses money
    4. People would get mad at it
    5. Punishes all people even though not all are scammers

    Just a few reasons. If you do not understand my reasons, you need to read them over again. I am a bad kid because I disagree with you? Thats not very good reasoning.

    This is a good sugesstion in one way and bad in another way.

    Good- It would cut out the scammers.

    Bad- It would cause a lot of spam, since everyone would want to get into the Black Market.

    If you actually listen to them when they wont use MM's or whatever, you deserve to be scammed.

    I was a leecher, and I ran my own pin shop, very successful. Not all are scammers. If you think they are, don't trade.

    Another question is, what are you doing trusting someone by post count? It would be so easy just to spam like crazy! I've seen someone with 20 posts per day. Would you trust them because they have a lot of posts?

    There are a lot of leechers that are for real though. They come to site only to sell their account, they sell it and leave. I've MM'ed trades for a fair few leechers in which they were trustworthy. I think our number of new members will drop if everyone has to get up their post count. Also there will be a lot more spam.

    And how many Trades have you done?

    Maybe this will make Users stay longer, because they'll begin to see what the Community is, and wish to stay. Doing this might actually bring more activity to Sythe as a whole, but it still has some negative outcomes.

    I've never used an MM either and I've done plenty of trades. I trust no-one more than myself. If I can, I try to keep business done my way because I am truly a businessman.

    I certainly encourage the use of MM's because I am the rare 1 percent you'll find on sythe that doesn't have the interest or even the guts to scam. There's so much more money to make not scamming and a reputation to build.

    I definately agree on this one, it will certainly decrease the ammount of scammers too. There are people who make about 200 posts to use the blackmarcket to scam. If there is a post limit a minority of scammers that "cba" will demish from sythe.

    On the other hand, like pointed out before, if there is a post limit, then spamming in other sections of the forums will increase a lot.
