Joey, in the past we've seen people get on here and get just enough posts to bombard the board with for sale threads and then once their stuff sells, they disappear. A while back we had a guy that used the TBRC forum as his personal online garage sale. We've also seen people posing as hobbyists that were really shills for commercial interests. RC is just trying to preserve the site for people actually in the hobby not just folks looking to make a quick sale. Anybody who is legitimately trying to use RC to gain more knowledge about reefing should be able to understand and abide by these few rules. 90 days and 50 meaningful posts is really nothing.
