Hi All

I wonder what are the reasons for setting the 25 posts requirement before letting to post to "Buy, Sell or Trade". Doesn't it leave the forum members without more job offers?

Take me as an example. Couple of months ago I realized that I'd like to hire a blogger for my site on agile software development methods. Somewhere on performancing.com I got good recommendations for the Digitial Point forums. Unfortunately, I was unable to post the ad, because of the requirements. As a result I hired a blogger via a different job board.

This month I decided that I need to hire one more blogger and since my blog topic is quite narrow the best hiring board would be the popular Digital Point forum. And again I am unable to post the offer. This time I am not in such a hurry and can try quickposting 25 times (including this point), but still there is a risk that I get tired and Digital Point members won't even see the offer.

I realize that every board has own rules and policies. I just wonder what could be the reasons for rules that leave the forum members without the job offers. Do I miss something?

You'd probably be best off posting this on DP as we don't have a "Buy, Sell or Trade" and can't really answer why DP does that.
