That's issue #1.

Jahawk brings up issue #2, spam.

Issue #3 revolves around folks who have been around the BBS for a LONG time and just don't post much.  Take a look at that thread about people with the least amount of time or posts, based on really old join dates. 


-1, despite good intentions here. 

Ive been around since november 2005 but only joined the BBS lasted december. I just lurked the bbs for awhile

Wrongway has a valid idea, but look at how many people don't read other stickies...

Yeah, do you think those posts that bug/entertain us the most are going to be posted by guys who read the stickies?  Our replies usually refer them to the trainers website or other threads.  If they didn't read those to begin with a sticky is just going to be a waste of words.

But it would be there to be referred to just like the BB posting rules that nobody reads.

A BB newbie's first post might be an interesting and sensible one - so, no to any restrictions.
