To provide real value, you need to have more than 10,000 posts and fewer than 15,000.

The thing is it's a large enough sampling for folks to know what the person is about. If you're on here long enough you get a feel for the place, what to expect, and if you've invested that much time in it you probably have learned to have at least some respect for it.

Second. Maybe lock it after a couple of weeks.
I get that, but I wonder if there is not some other way to test this. Some agents may have a higher threshold of message importance than others... meaning this policy might actually be chopping off some valuable input from some agents that only post occasionally - but when they do, they're respectful.
Maybe a short online quiz to pass (rules of forum, etc) that gives them a certain content-admin designation, and allows them to do something different than the huddled masses.

I don't necessarily disagree with you, but that would probably add more of an administrative burden to the forum gods and I think that trumps everything. The reality is that we're guests here on a free forum that Sam is generous enough to host. Personally, I think it's a great place and I would and have been on here even without selling anything, but it's also difficult to ignore that this is a great place to get free advertising so I'm incline to want to make it as easy as possible for the powers that be to run this site.
I vote no lock as well. I want to know if an upcoming webinar is put on by someone who is known to waste time promoting themselves vs. giving good info. I also want to be able to leave feedback if I like/dislike something.

I guess I could always be the arbiter of who gets to post and what the posts can say.
How could anyone disagree with that idea?

Rick was briefly nice to me today, so I second his suggestion here.

I'll agree, what if there could be follow up info regarding the webinar, if it's locked you cannot provide additional value.
Awesome that we're breaking new ground on here.

I agree that locking the posts after the event does not let people give feedback, but not locking leaves the door open for a heated debate...
I say if people want to know about the webinar, attend one, then they can post their opinions on the next one before the event occurs.
I don't know...just throwing ideas out there and seeing what sticks. The filter from brain to mouth (or fingers) rusted away many years ago.
Rob - I like the fact we are shaking things up with this post.
Rick - I agree...who could disagree with that! Is that a double negative?
