He found 10 posts now. The last 4 threads I have clicked on he has a post in. Something will pop up on marketplace and we won’t see him again for 6 years.

I would encourage all members to be extremely cautious when considering a transaction with folks with little history here.
Buyer be ware!
Seller be ware!

If you only knew what a time consuming headache just the market place is...I doubt you would want a sub forum.
A computer forum I used to frequent required 150 posts to post in their classified section. Couldn't buy or sell.
Anyone joining OGF just to access the marketplace is not the type of member we want or need.
The Marketplace was opened as a side benefit for outdoors men to sell or trade their no longer wanted or needed equipment. A handful of people have turned it into their personal "Craigs List". One of these days we are going to figure out how to charge for access to guys who are profiteering off of the site.

Would seriously be in to adopting that higher post count format here.
Along with adopting the higher post count to be eligible for posting on the market place, am for adopting an automatic permanent vacation for those attempting to creatively sidestep OGF TOS guidelines and attempt to sell their wares on other OGF forums.
I could completely understand for selling in our marketplace and am all for it. But can’t see needing to qualify in order to buy. Imagine a new fisher-person getting on the site and seeing exactly what they need for sale at a reasonable price and not being able to buy it. It’s definitely expensive to get started in some fishing adventures. Trolling Erie, salmon, or even maybe getting a first tin boat. But I do understand wanting to also keep the lurkers away that go to sites just to find killer deals and make profits.
Raise the number of posts to be able to advertise. Put a SMALL yearly fee to use market place. You should also be required to be active. Again we need to thank the moderators for a tough thankless job. I recently PM'd a member and WANTED something he had and he wouldn't even respond. He had very few post over 6 years and is advertising again.
Would limiting the "for sale" post help. For example, you can only make 5 new post a year offering something for sale or trade. I would support raising the minimum post, too.
