i thought the 100 post minimum was only to apply to posting for sale ads however i cant get up a WTB advert on there due to falling short of this benchmark.

i guess theres no way to screen subject matter and so the block has to apply to all new threads but its a shame. that being said perhaps its a good thing and it saves that section for just being unundated with requests for parts that are never followed up.
maybe you could ammend the stickies to say it applies to for sale and WTTB as i know im not the only one who came up against this.
