I think if anything, it's not restrictive enough. The idea is that HN acts as a community filter for membership, and 200 is really not much for an active member of the community.
- jgrahamc 15y agoWhat value would you suggest?
- jolan 15y agoSame as the downvoting threshold (500).
- thomas11 15y agoI think anything from 200 to 500 would work well. Anything at or over 1000 is problematic since to get that you need to be quite active on the site.
- kabushikigaisha 15y ago500+; the downvoting threshold should be enough.
- cschmidt 15y agoIf the main point is to filter out recruiters, then 100 or 2 years should be fine. There's no need to filter out less active posters.
- ramblex 15y agoFor a brief moment there I thought you were suggesting that it should only be available to people who registered 100 or 2 years ago
- mikk0j 15y agoYou would need a threshold of course. But having that would also mean there would be a fringe demand for people who are above the threshold. Thus, if this is done, there could be demand for a job board where non-threshold-meeting HN members can employ threshold-meeting HN members to post their job ads. Ok, partly kidding.
