that all depends on you and your member's behavior.
for me i set it as 50 post and my reason was that i didnt want to have my board filled up with similar threads. so i tell my new users that they cannot post a topic until after they reach 50 posts. That way they get a sense of how things are done in the board and if there is a thread they want to start, maybe a similar one is already made!

and should i keep in additional usergroup or primary?

if i keep additional usergroup then in posts and profile will it display that they belongs to this usergruop and fontcolour of usergroup will be visible?

or will it be visible in primary usergroup?

Primary is what you should go for.

the idea of having additional group is if you want your user to be in several groups at the same time BUT you have:

GROUP A = under 100 post - cant post threads
GROUP B = over 100 post - can post threads

they should be either in A or B
so you need to completely move them. they cant be in both

you mean after adding promotion i should go for scheduled task manager?

Scheduled Task Manager does it automatically for you. you can change the schedual if you want but it does it automatically every X mins. you can change X of course.
