for sale/trade ?

[mojo]

every forum has one

perhaps a screening method of security whereby a member has to make a certain number of constructive and helpful posts (i.e not just posting short/unrelated/repeated answers) then they are allowed to post topics in the thread, otherwise they are removed by moderators?

several forums I'm a member of have employed this tactic, and asides from the very occasional topic posted by someone who hasn't read the rules, it works quite well.

i suggest this as I've got loads of crap to shift

Well phpbb has the facility to use a "minimum post count" to hide/show content (such as downloads/ thread posting) so it could be added

[mojo]

sounds good, some forums say around 35-50 posts before allowing members to post, they even have a member group for authorized traders
(with their own feedback and for sale topics)

a similar thing here?

Ive also seen forums that enforce an eBay feedback score system

[mojo]

that could work also, and gives an extra layer of protection to the buyer and seller...

I'll add this ASAP guys.... i'm feeling a lot better but i've developed a bad inner ear infection which means i'm currently about 80% deaf in both ears, with mild pain, constant ringing sound which is bloody annoying, and unbalanced when walking. All this from a frigging COLD!? It's totally knocked me for six. Have been told could takes weeks to clear 100%. Anyway, i'm still trying to do some stuff here and there, so i'll get this added asap.
