We've all seen it:

Cons:
Your name is bad
You only joined today and posted 23 times to get the ability to become admin
You smell like cheese

-soup

I feel that we should change the number to something higher like 50-60 posts so the new people cant just spam a few times and become admin, instead they'll have to actually invest time into the community.

Thanks for reading.

I'd be a hypocrite to agree because I applied with only 29 forum posts and made it, Suicide applied with only 19, and Will applied after being on the forums for less than 2 weeks. I feel like it's good to leave it alone because it should be ultimately up to the person who is applying to apply when they feel like it's the right time.

I applied with like 200 ish. I like the idea of upping it though. Gets rid of some of the easily weak applicants who just want power.

I applied with 1 post. And yet got accepted.

On a serious note, let's compare the Pros and Cons:

+ More people would think twice before applying for admin
+ They would potentially need to invest more time into the forums
+ The new admin application would have now more people who could become admin

- More desperate people would necrobump many threads over s short period of time
- Instead of their own judgement, they will take new "minimum post limit" as a measure how active they have to be instead of thinking for themselves. I always prefer admins who can think more for themselves.

With that being said, I will not vote for it, but also not against it. I'm fine either way.
