Title: Re: so i have to post a bunch of nonsense to be able to discuss something of worth? Post by: AzureEngineer on May 12, 2013, 09:33:41 PM There is no reason to post nonsense in the newbies board. In fact, this board has one of the highest amounts of traffic, both newb and non-newb. If you have something to discuss that is of value, the newbies board is as good as any.

As others have said, apparently new users need to spend some time familiarizing themselves with the forum. I think getting to know the forum, not spam prevention, is the main reason why the newbie restrictions are in effect.

Post by: cryptopi on May 12, 2013, 10:28:18 PM I think this rule is a good one because it forces users to familiarize themselves with the forum before they can post in other areas

Post by: DarthMedicus on May 13, 2013, 03:41:58 AM I'm actually glad that this forum forces new users to start in the newbie forum. I picked up on a lot of good information, including the recently posted guide for people new to BitCoin.

No need to get your panties all in a bunch. I've been involved with Bitcoin for over 2.5 years now, and the Newbie forum still has a lot to teach. You just have to be willing to learn.

Post by: joef on May 13, 2013, 05:24:51 AM I was following some threads for months, now I registered, cause I want to answer. But now I need to write somewheree else...
Title: Re: so i have to post a bunch of nonsense to be able to discuss something of worth? Post by: joef on May 13, 2013, 05:26:28 AM But there is no need to write nonsense.

I want to post something in altcoins. Title: Re: so i have to post a bunch of nonsense to be able to discuss something of worth? Post by: joef on May 13, 2013, 05:51:27 AM How many posts are required to reach the next status after newbie?
