Thanks beriac for the comment you made, i couldn't have put it better.
but i will say a few more words or so in reply to the original post.
seeing as i'm not a good talker i'll just be direct about it.

the whole purpose of a "private" freeroll is to allow only those who meet certain criteria to be eligible to play.
surely if we let anyone be able to participate, we might as well call it a public freeroll why don't we?

now it's not like the requirements we've set is that high.
all we ask for is for our existing and new members to enjoy and actively participate in the BBP community.
that means, no, we do'nt set a certain number of required posts and anyone who passes it can qualify. as long as there's an element of contribution to the forums, they will be invited. that means, someone who posted 30 messages may still not qualify if they aren't actually contributing anything to the forum compared to someone who posted 7 and is already being part of our community.

it's a freeroll set up by BBP, for those in BBP, so i don't see what's so hard to understand when we say only loyal members of BBP may participate...
