Title: Are we actually allowed to post?
Post by: Mordrul on December 19, 2012, 11:45:27 PM
I've twice tried to create a post about a bug with a miner app, but every time I hit Post, I just get taken back to the Newbies forum, and nothing has been posted.  Nor have there ever been any kinds of error messages.

You need five post and have been online for five hours before you can post in other sections of this forum.

The newbie section is well read, and if you post your question here I'm sure you'll get an answer. If the post is important enough it will be moved to the relevant section.

FTFY

Due to a mass of trolling, only established posters are able to post in non-newbie sections. You are considered "established" if you have spent 4 hours online and have made 5 posts (new topics or replies).

If you have really good posts, you can post a request for preemptive whitelisting in the appropriate topic (http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=15911.0).

Also:
- Newbies cannot upload their own avatars.
- You must have made one post in order to send PMs.
- You need 10 posts to put a link in your signature.

Note that it may take up to 10 minutes for your PM or posting permissions to be granted. (The system automatically checks every 10 minutes and promotes people as appropriate.)
