    Yes good things but it wouldn't happen since many users do business on DP without posting too much. This was asked many times here but Mod can't do this.

    In fact I see someone have 40+ iTraders without having posts.

    You are substituting one problem with another. Sure you can put a minimum of 100 posts before the member can PM, but those spammers-to-be will blast out 100 useless posts so as to PM spam. In the end there will be a problem deleting such posts. Even for BST, with 25 posts minimum, we are seeing tons of new members who are posting 25 posts of crap just to be able to spam in BST.
