The issue is I have nothing to add, and crippling the site, for me, by requiring 20 posts for new members to even edit their profile options is a bit of a pain. Add that to 'asking basic questions' that are easily answered by searching sort of makes it impossible unless I'm posting meaningless things. I'm sure it's fun to interact, but unless I have something constructive to add, I'm just not going to say anything. I understand spam is an issue and all of that, but to cripple legitimate members until they hit a magical threshold is sort of silly.

I can't even update my location yet.
