If 50 posts seems like too much, it could easily be a time limit. How does being an active member for a year sound instead?
50 posts is not that bad, pay your dues like the rest of us. Yes, I went through the same thing a few months ago. It took me all of a week of active participation to reach my limit. Not a bad price to pay for such and active, captive, focused audience to sell your wares.
Oh, and don't mess with Toad too much.

im just curious why the 50 post rule i understand it can weed out terds for the most part but dont you think scammer will just bid their time make the post and then rip someone off
like everyone has been saying it only takes a few days to get 50 "legitimate" posts in order to sell

But by putting some type of provision in place (this forum has decided on 50 posts), you will at least weed out the not so dedicated spammers.
If it was simply a timer, the person could could create the account, wait out the timer, and then post their scam items for sale.
Personally I would rather have it be the number of posts...with 50 posts, one can look back through the person's post history and see what those 50 posts consisted of to make some determination on the person before buying from them.

Who gives a shit? I for one appreciate it and "get it". Why is it so hard for some folks to understand?

Actively participate in the forum by asking questions you truly want to know the answers to and before you know it you've surpassed this minimum....it really isn't that hard. If you can't manage this then check out ebay or your local craigslist until you have met the minimum.
