    I can actually stand behind this feature, seems like a great way to reduce spam from bots and toxic users.

    This would be amazing for me as well. Make it so any user below X posts can receive chats and use them, but cannot start them with other users- other users have to message first. Then after that post threshold they can message normally.

    Just FYI, there is an option in user settings so that you can't receive a chat unless you followed that person first

    Just because you have 25 posts doesn't mean you're not going to abuse the chat feature

    In my opinion, you will end up annoying more people by implementing this than stopping abusers.

    But it makes it harder for those people.
    Or maybe a option users can't chat for the first 7 days 🙂 This way people must have to wait before they can chat with members.

    I know, but It's not easy for new members to find that option. It's a little bit hidden in the settings.

    Dutch chat at it finest hehe, Anyhow I do think that there is some work needed on the chat, these features are great and all. But unlike a good system to keep them somewhat in check, like a block feature like suggested one post above me or a minimum amount of posts required or basicly anything like that that still allows users to chat with each other without needing to have the users follow each other seems like a step in the right direction.

    blocking may be a better option than implementing x days/x posts restriction. You will be causing inconvenience to legit users.
