Bump,

The posting rules for this forum are tough to figure out, when all you want to do is post.  I didn't start in the "Newbies" section of this board because, there is not much useful info for me.  I was more interested in the mining aspect, so with google as my search tool, I searched the board for mining info, ie GPU/ASIC, profitability calcs, mining pools, mining software, rigs etc (sprinkled with a few pirate searches), plus I used IRC for some quick stuff.  Only after 4 weeks of reading, did I actually find myself in need.  In need of posting that is, on some technical stuff...but to my surprise, after creating an account today, I couldn't find the post or reply button for the boards I needed, nor were there any hints during signup about the restrictions...Which I have to say, was a very frustrating experience.

wow, newbie restriction. took me quite som time to figure out what to do to get around this. i have registered before that little thing was introduced and spend most of the time here reading as not logged in guest.

maybe you add a small hint for that restriction to your help section for already registered, older users. would be helpful somehow...

that is for new registrants.
i have been talking about older members that still fall in newbie restrictions. i have read the entire forum (well, sort of), but not as logged in member (cause i am lazy).
well then...newbie restriction just passed for me. cu in the forum...

So is the restriction lifted automatically? I thought you had to post in the sticky thread.

Yes, it is. You should lurk more. A LOT more.

Looks like this could get really meassy without restrictions...
Very high Volume Board, lots of "SPAM" even in the newbie-forum ...
