[quote=0b3]Allow me to throw my two cents into the feedback pool: This is also my case which might make a good study: A year ago, I was a mere guest viewing this forum to access those layouts. That's it, I just want those fab layouts! Then slowly I scanned other depts & before I knew it I was tweaking my profile. I decided to become a member early this year. and started submitting layouts back when I was a newbie with a 40+ post only I think. And I am not alone in this dept, so many newbies are now contributing layouts. So forget the likes of us ever existed if this is ever implemented then ha! Forget about those bulk of members/guests viewing the CSS dept (yeah try to check where those people go!) Or if people really want their layouts published, or badly need those layouts, here's the scenario now: So those members who have 0 posts and/or newbies will then have to spam feverishly just to reach 100 for them to access the codes, am I not right? Look at those number of guests viewing.. imagine them registering, then posting and heaven forbid spamming in the process for them to access the layouts. This makes the idea a double edged sword then. Sure there is a good motive behind it but there are also consequences(good and bad) that might arise from its implementation. One of them could be losing those precious viewers.. I heard Chatbox was once a busy, busy area. Are you all ready for it? But if the sole purpose is to protect the linker shouldn't other sites practice discretion also in protecting it? Tell me, is FTalk the only one who have access to the linker? Coz I really don't know.. And if not, this battle cannot be won by us alone right? Like I said, this is just my opinion..[/quote] Spam just to reach a 100? I think this is a impossible theory in some ways... I usually ban members who keeps spamming when they reach 13 consecutive post I do not know about the others but I think some have the same idea as mine. Of course I warned them before hand also the other mods. For the guest viewing turning into members. I am used to handling tons of PMs, and reports in my handled section, also I think the other mods are prepared as well. The hidden purpose of my idea is to help viewers learn to tweak their profile and practice their creativity and common sense in posting. Anyway if your view some post above regarding my suggestion, I think they have good ideas as well so kindly consider the suggestion of the other members and admin. On the other hand we can just make the 100 post suggestion to a 30 post one.
