Title: Newbie Lock Post by: jamestown2035 on May 20, 2013, 09:22:47 PM How long before I can actually ask a question in the pool I'm mining? I've been a member for almost a month, yet I can't ask a simple question in the mining forums? Seems pretty crazy, so I guess I'll post about garbage to get my 5 in.
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: vintosalgos223 on May 20, 2013, 09:26:49 PM It may be 10 posts I'm thinking.
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: jamestown2035 on May 20, 2013, 09:30:46 PM Must be I can't even send a PM to the administrator of the pool. >:(
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: boobies on May 20, 2013, 09:32:26 PM post count +1
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: n0h0p3 on May 20, 2013, 09:39:16 PM 10 posts and 4+ hours logged on i guess ;)
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: alvintostig on May 20, 2013, 09:50:11 PM two
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: BTCtrader71 on May 20, 2013, 09:50:23 PM Really? We need 10 posts? Doesn't that just encourage junk posts?
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: alvintostig on May 20, 2013, 09:52:58 PM yep!
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: MikkisJ on May 20, 2013, 09:55:52 PM Alright, first one.
...One has to start from somewhere... Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: thiandre on May 20, 2013, 10:00:08 PM not very fun indeed. Lets get this countdown started then...
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: dio0 on May 20, 2013, 10:17:11 PM 5 posts, I'm at halfway
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: bearsworth on May 20, 2013, 10:20:14 PM thanks for that i wasn't sure how many we needed!
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: machinegunate on May 20, 2013, 10:32:50 PM time to fill up some hard drive out there on the internet with meaningless bits.
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: YukonCoinelius on May 20, 2013, 10:35:51 PM The 5 post req is too high, imo. With the 4 hours log time, seems like 0, 1, or 2 posts should be enough as proof against spam, etc.
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: Bush on May 20, 2013, 10:44:52 PM I'm having the same issues.
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: CryptoMaster on May 20, 2013, 10:48:15 PM I thought it was 5 but it seems it's 10 considering it's been 4h already...
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: Kake on May 20, 2013, 11:01:00 PM Another post from me here!
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: Olav31 on May 20, 2013, 11:04:22 PM Is this were I post my first post?
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: bitbeg on May 20, 2013, 11:12:16 PM I wish I made an account a long time ago. :)
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: Olav31 on May 20, 2013, 11:17:16 PM I wish I made an account a long time ago. :) So did I!A friend of mine told me to mine litecoins and now I find lots of cool giveaways cannot post in! Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: ghibly79 on May 20, 2013, 11:22:47 PM Wasn't it 5? Oh well.... 10 bring it on ;)
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: Kake on May 20, 2013, 11:23:12 PM I wish I made an account a long time ago. :) Yeah, I was just reading and lurking around bitcointalk without registering for the longest time too! Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: randoint on May 20, 2013, 11:29:03 PM Posting as newbie!
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: Gamelord on May 20, 2013, 11:30:38 PM I thought it was only 4 posts, must be more than that. Anyone figure it out please let us all know. Would love to join into the regular conversations.
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: Olav31 on May 20, 2013, 11:48:36 PM I think it's 5 and then you have to ask to be freed on the whitelist request
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: Olav31 on May 20, 2013, 11:49:18 PM It also takes 4 hours of login time, i guess.
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: Marduk on May 20, 2013, 11:57:47 PM It takes 4 hours logged in and 5 posts. However it is not instantaneous when you get to that. It will take some time for the server to update your status. I'm not sure what it is, but it's not long.
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: bitbeg on May 20, 2013, 11:58:52 PM it's been 36 minutes so far and I feel like I'm in solitary confinement here.
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: mike298342 on May 21, 2013, 12:03:01 AM I've been lurking on the forums for a while. Forgot the time requirement to get out of newbie land. I wasn't logged in so all my time reading the forum didn't count.
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: CryptoMaster on May 21, 2013, 12:03:07 AM According to the stickies it should be 5 posts + 4h and a script runs every 10min for promotions.
Obviously something of that is not true, as I have +5, and been a member for +7h :P Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: mandroid on May 21, 2013, 12:09:50 AM According to the stickies it should be 5 posts + 4h and a script runs every 10min for promotions. Obviously something of that is not true, as I have +5, and been a member for +7h :P I don't think the system is always consistent - I made my 5th post weeks ago and was quite pleased with myself for becoming "unlocked" - today I log in to find out I'm locked again and my account only lists 4 posts :/ Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: ning on May 21, 2013, 06:08:36 PM https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=177133.0
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: randomnumber on May 21, 2013, 07:16:00 PM Yeah, the same issues here.
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: XenCoin on May 21, 2013, 07:31:06 PM yeah, 5 posts and 4 h.
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: nightpanda2810 on May 21, 2013, 07:58:25 PM I just signed up and saw the restrictions, and I just had a bug to report on my pool :(
Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: Maged on May 21, 2013, 08:08:58 PM It takes 4 hours logged in and 5 posts. However it is not instantaneous when you get to that. It will take some time for the server to update your status. I'm not sure what it is, but it's not long. This. As for the automatic upgrading, it happens every 10 minutes on the 0. The script runs at 3:00, 3:10, 3:20, etc.Title: Re: Newbie Lock Post by: nviere on May 21, 2013, 09:01:50 PM me2!
