It's really just a matter of weeding out all those pesky bots. Give yourself some time, make some posts in "Newbies" and you'll graduate in no time.

People like you with logic, understanding and patience seem to find the whole process much smoother and quicker.

I, for one, am glad bitcointalk has this multi-level approach to approved forum users. It keeps all the spam bots from clogging the forums. :)  I've been 'lurking' for about a month, and just now am starting to think about participating in some discussions. I think everyone should read threads from a forum they want to join for at least a few hours before spouting off a quick forum post or reply.

According to your profile you have 7 minutes to go - add a little more time for the DB to adjust, and hey presto ;D

Go browse some other topics, grab a bite to eat, enjoy some sunshine/rain/moonshine - whatever you have available. ;)

In short, don't limit yourself to just browsing the Newbies forum. Keep learnin' for the next few hours.

you have 40 mins then you will not be a newbie...


Someone has to read https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=177133.msg1844234 before exiting newbie.

Isn't it 4 hours and 5 posts?
Atleast that's what the link says.

Hi all !

I'm here for about a week now.

But I'm still a noob !!

What should I do to stop being a noob ??


thanks,

By the way,
I'm selling some BTC domains
If anyone's intrested let me know

www.btcfactory.com
www.btc-shops.com
www.virtual-coin.com
www.mining-pools.com



BTCBTCBTCBTCBTCBTC

Oh the irony.

sergeyrar, my advice for what it's worth, is to start not being a newbie by being productive. Selling things isn't as productive as buying, and buying it's as productive as creating, and creating isn't as productive as creating something original of high-quality. The same rules outside bitcoin work inside bitcoin. Spammers get ignored and banned, scammers get ostracized, and people who sell domains no one wants get made fun of.

When you're out of newbie jail, jump into the technical and political discussion subforums and see what the "non-newbies" are up to. You'll catch up in no time.

It's over the top to require 5 hours logged in, when the time doesn't seem to increase from reading. I've been on this site for several days and it's only showing 2 hours and 15 minutes. It doesn't take hours to do 5 posts.

Is there something special about the time logged in counter that I don't know about?  I had been logged in and reading for over three hours, yet when I came back the next day I noticed that the total time the board showed me logged in was only 43 minutes!

And yes, I had actually been reading.  The thread I was reading was over 25 pages long . . . the one on Cyprus where the bank took over 700k+ euros from Zeroday's account.  Sad and frustrating story!

But I love the happy ending that Bitcoin saved him...

So, frustrating -
I lurk here for a while, I find a pool, I join it, pool shuts down, only way to get access to my coins is to PM the owner through this... and apparently I can't do that without some BS "community" activity?

What exactly is the newbie policy supposed to protect against?

Quite sad PMs didn't work when I read that, though.  I had some interesting to send him that will likely have to wait until it no longer matters on his situation.  With 700,000 euros on the line it's really sad...
