Instead of just requiring a post count to post a thread in the marketplace, why not make them wait a month, or have to be approved by the staff.

Then the person can PM the person that asked a question in that case. I think that the benefits far outweigh the point you have brought up on that. If someone wants to bring up a new point, they can start a new topic.

And if they just have to wait a month, that means they have gained access to the marketplace, without giving anything to the community. It should be both, in my opinion.
