Yah I've been thinking about this a little more, and looking at past comments, and I'm starting to shy away now from a generic job posting service, precisely for the reasons you mention. However, listing a specific project and getting one or more people on board to help with that project (a one-time deal, basically), seems a little more appealing. And I am talking about for-hire stuff here. Would you have objections to that with this model as well?

It seems to me that there are already plenty of places out there where you can post job offerings... the only difference I see in opening up PM to such drivel is that a posting on PM is free, whereas other sites may charge the poster for either the job listing itself or a completed "transaction" in the form of a hire. Seems that'd be the #1 way to divert unneeded spamming to our beloved halls. I would be okay with it if we made it such that only experienced monks (at least level 3+, I'd prefer 5) could actually post for jobs.	[reply]
