Yeah, I'd be against something like this as, like you said Sage, it would increase the amount of idle accounts and 'hit and run' users. If a user does want to request a signature that is beyond the limitations of AS's rules, then they can always PM a designer asking them to fulfil their request.
The one gripe I have at the moment with requests is when users post stock/source images not in thumbnails or in spoiler tags. My d/l speed isn't particularly brilliant where I am...

I'm not sure about this. After taking a couple of minutes skimming through the recent request pages, the active designers that are regularly carrying out requests do not seem bothered about the requester's join date/post count/sig usage, and the designers that do take issue with these requesters are going to be the ones who create/join the designers guild; thus making it fairly redundant.
