Hi Everyone,
It is happening more and more that people are signing up just
to sell their golf equipment here and not offering anything
else. They sell their gear, make their money and move on.
We do not mind providing this service for free but would like
to make sure that we are offering our regular users this
service and not newbie users.
SO...
You must now have a minimum post count of 20 to place an ad
here in the Classifieds. That way we know you have given
something to the forums and no doubt helped someone or offered
useful commentary.
We think that this is fair and hopefully rewards those of you
who visit often and offer their time, which we really
appreciate.
Posts from members under the 20 mark will be deleted.

PS - Thanks to the recent suggestions by a few of our regulars
about this topic.

It was actually suggested by several of our readers. Why should
we provide a free way for someone to sell to the largest online
golf audience in Australia when they are not offering anything
to our forums. They come in once, sell an item and never
return.
It costs a tremendous amount of money to run this site so we
think it is fair that people need to give something back in
return for us allowing them to make money.
20 posts is very little but at least shows you are offering
soemthing to the community here.
Very sound reasons. You have my support Jason.
