Glad to hear you got results from the experiment that pushed your decision one way or the other. It's good to have results to work from. I personally like the "waiting period" for new users, but feel it might be tweaked a bit. They must read X number of posts before being able to comment. Or wait X number of days before being able to post. And either of them would show as a countdown on their profile page, so they had visibility into when their account had fully "matured". Maybe there's a second step after that, where they can comment on posts, but not create entirely new posts for a week. That gives them time to read, interact, and get a feel for things before they can post their spam ads. :-)
