Hi trukolor
Thanks for asking that question.
The reason for the '15-post rule' is that we are a community of domain buyers and sellers. We like to encourage people to share information and post around the forum in order to maintain our community.
This prevents people from coming to Doman Social and spamming the forum with their domain offers. Sure, we WANT domain offers, but we don't ONLY want domain offers. So, we allow users who have proven themselves to post their domains for sale.
Note that buyers can reply to your threads and buy your domains, without any post-count limits.
Besides all of that, 15 posts is not really that much, so it's easy to obtain. However, it is enough to responsabilise our users and familiarise them with the community. For that reason, we consider it a fair-trade off.
It's great that you have some domains to sell, and I'm sure that they are very good. Sure, you can put them up on ebay if you want.. I have nothing against that. The more exposure you get the better. But, again, we are a community, not just a spam page for domain sellers.
I don't think of you as a prick for asking that question, and I'm sure that no one else here does either. I love people who question the rules, and that's why this site was founded (because of the stubborness of other forums). It's great that you enjoy reading the forum, but have a go posting in a few threads to raise your post count a bit, and you'll have full access to the site.
See you around the forum!
