Cheers Salathe. I agree with ya spencer - I don't think it would even be a problem, as long as there is a big staff team. I just think that these little rules won't make any difference.

Lets imagine the type of spammer whom this is trying to combat. Someone who just wants to post in the market place, without contributing to anything else, right?

Do we even want these members? Just selling cheap crap in the market place? If I was one of them, i'd say, great, I'll just wait four days, and I can spam the market place with my $5 designs. I'm not saying these types of rules can't work. But when you make it only 4 days, or 10 posts, it doesn't act as a deterant (which is the point of the rule in the first place) - make it 100 posts, require users to be verified or 25 days would work better imo!
