wow. I thought we were sharing our opinions. why even have the "let anyone post" option if we're clearly not going that direction? Why ask at all, just implement what you want?
I believe if the poll was overwhelmingly in favor of letting anyone post nothing would change.

really all the ads should just be emailed to me for review prior to posting. That way I can snap up all the good deals.
I vote 50. To me, this place is a community-I've donated money to make sure it stays up, I've given to no end of fundraisers for our own, and like to think I can trust the members here. It's a community first, and the classifieds are just a small convenience.
There's plenty of other places to sell things.

The only direction we're
clearly
not going is having a TIME BASED limit. What makes you assume anything else?

That is exactly the case.

I'm bumping this because 57 votes out of almost 11K members isn't enough..
C'mon people...be heard.

... I think members should have at least 50 posts to be allowed to vote in this poll.
And that unless you have voiced your opinion by voting in this poll... You shouldn't be allowed to sell

Is this like American Idol where we can vote as many times as we want? Hard to think so many are apathetic or have no opinion. Especially the no opinion part

I think anyone should be able to post a classified ad. Why would we want to limit the awesome goodies we can buy? Is the goal to eliminate scammers? If yes, then I guess it's a decent idea to make a post count rule. If the goal isn't to stop scammers then I don't get it.

The serious: I think there ought be some minimum post level (and FWIW I'd set it higher than 25). IMO it may deter some of the opportunist blow-ins whose only purpose in venturing here is to place a free ad in front of a narrowly targeted audience.

I think this sums it up pretty well.

I don't think anyone said it was harmful, but it certainly doesn't fit the definition of participating in the community. I would tend to agree with ung that having a targeted audience is taking advantage of a great opportunity.
The question is simply, as a community, do we want to allow anyone to come here just to sell stuff and then go on their way? If you think it's OK that's fine.
I think I know how you vote.
That said, with only .005% percent participation in the voting things aren't likely to change.
