35 Post to message someone? this is going to be longgggg

35 posts does seem a lot to access PMs to me tbh.

I can understand restricting access to for sale threads, but not PM's. Can take ages to make 35 posts, not everyone's car is a project so won't have a project thread and they may not want to jump straight in with discussions in the lounge, takes a while for people to understand whether the forum is full or banter (as it is) or whether its full of easily offendable people (I say because I made the mistake on another forum and am no longer welcome there haha). So after a welcome thread it can take a while to get up to 35 posts, unless they start spamming 'nice car' in other projects which I'm sure we all find boring! I'm sure there is a reason for it, just doesn't make a lot of sense to me lol.

35 posts is easily achievable in a day, let alone a few days. We almost set a time restraint too, but figured 35 posts was visible enough that we'd pick up on someone spamming just to sell (which we've noticed a few times and prevented already). 10 posts is not nearly enough to prevent people spamming to sell.

The person that started this thread has buggered off already. He's obviously here just for selling or buying.
