I know that this has probably been decided but I agree with the no character count on the posts. I also strongly support the fact that there needs to be a minimum number of posts prior to entering Buy/Sell/Trade as there are some who just want to get there to try and sell stuff and never contribute. While I am not currently a builder because of the lack of time, it is great to be able to see what others are doing and then tweak a built rig that I have through working with, talking to, or buying small things off each other.

Everything is a fine line to keep people from padding posts to quickly get to 10,15,20,25, or 30 because a smiley isn't a substantial post. It is a hard task that the board moderators will have to protect members, and maintain a forum that is fun and friendly
