Secondly, there’s really no point in bombarding the forum with unnecessary non-sponsor ads. To be honest, the only people that deserve to have their ads displayed here are the sponsors themselves as they are they sole reason post4vps exists. So having users “purchase” ad space in the forum using credit points will just make it much more annoying to use, specially on mobile where the screen space is very minimal... the last thing we (the mobile users) want is more ads stuffing our screens instead of the stuff that actually matters.

This is indeed the major reason why I thought @Dynamo's would never agree to the OP's suggestions.

It's always a real dilemma for every webmaster to get the right balance between a website's usability and user-friendliness and hosting ADS.. As generally with ADS comes bloat!..

The business model of Post4VPS requires the presence of sponsors' ads... which we can all live with to a certain limit at least..

To be frank, I was a bit astonished from the whole OP's premise. As I not only believe that, as things stands right now, all the hosted members of this community are already having a good bargain, but I do also think that if I was in @Dynamo's shoes i would have tighten the screws a bit as to the quality of those required 20 posts, may be while decreasing the quantity to 15 or 10.

Again, the focus should be more on the ratio not the totals. Anyone visiting the forum from time to time would have known that already!..
