Can I limit the people I sell my services / products to?

Let's say for example I only wanna sell to members:

- Who have been here for at least x months and are active, or
- Who have at least x amount of posts, or
- After manually checking their past engagement history here in the forum?

Is it allowed to refuse doing business with selected members?

It's 100% down to you who you decide to do business with. However, you should note that the vast majority of our users are not logged in or don't have accounts, so you could be missing out on millions of users each year. Stats ref https://www.blackhatworld.com/pages/advertising/

Thank you for the clarification.

So just if I understand it correctly, if someone asks for (for example a discount) in my thread, I check their posting history and discover they are just farming engagement, should I adress it, and mention that I refuse to do business with them? Or just ignore their request all together??

I mean.. you offer a service and you're 100% in the right to decline your service to anyone. Just like in real life.
That being said... My account has no activity yet I often buy services from people on this forum.

Can I limit the people I sell my services / products to?
