Title: Whats wrong with this forum? Post by: november12 on November 28, 2013, 03:23:49 AM I signed up on 12th November (hence the name) and have not been able to make 1 post! I log in and try and search and it says "You are doing that too quickly try again in 90 seconds". If I try to post it says wait 360 seconds. Really? Wtf? How does anyone contribute to these forums. I've tried changing my IP and it still doesn't work.

Timer only counts if your reading pages and actively browsing Title: Re: Whats wrong with this forum? Post by: Itun on November 28, 2013, 03:25:28 AM This happened to me too in the beginning.
It should get better. Title: Re: Whats wrong with this forum? Post by: WayTooGosu on November 28, 2013, 03:27:10 AM It is a precaution to prevent bots and spammers. The time limit fades down to nothing as you post more and more.
Title: Re: Whats wrong with this forum? Post by: bitbob82 on November 28, 2013, 03:38:35 AM yeah, even after staying here for months, i can only post once every 360 seconds
Title: Re: Whats wrong with this forum? Post by: FallenKings on November 28, 2013, 03:59:47 AM Its to prevent scammers/spammers/trolls and Advertisers. They actually have a pretty good system to keep unwanted forums and such. It also helps with not drastically changing the post count some people need for free btc from Sigs.
Title: Re: Whats wrong with this forum? Post by: Dux2K on November 28, 2013, 09:01:44 AM Yeah, it's happening to me too.
Even more annoying is when i cant post cause of reported errors. :D Title: Re: Whats wrong with this forum? Post by: doryphoros on November 28, 2013, 10:01:16 AM I think you need a certain number of posts and a certain amount of time spent browsing the newbie forum before you become a member with full privileges

I've tried changing my IP and it still doesn't work. Every higher rank (member status) has lower waiting times. You increase your member status with higher activity (more posts) Title: Re: Whats wrong with this forum?

You increase your member status with higher activity (more posts) Okey, it really helps now that we know every higher rank (member status) has lower waiting times. THANKS for the clear and understandable explanation! :) Title: Re: Whats wrong with this forum? Post by: Daddaaff on November 28, 2013, 10:41:06 AM I also had the same problem with my very first post. Seems like anyone in this building is also posting on bitcointalk ^^
Title: Re: Whats wrong with this forum? Post by: hieroglyph on December 03, 2013, 12:57:12 AM yes this happen to us all from time to time. Just follow the directions and from my experience it should sort itself out.
Title: Re: Whats wrong with this forum? Post by: t35483 on December 03, 2013, 01:15:10 AM Hello and thank you guys! Finaly I know whats going on! ...Newbie Readme... as always.
I signed up in april this year, because I was intrested in mining and here was a good place to get information. Last week I recognized that it was worth the fun... ^^ So after a little abscence I'm back in the Bitcoin adventure =) Title: Re: Whats wrong with this forum? Post by: jfglassworks on December 03, 2013, 01:29:24 AM It is extremely annoying for a person like me who tends to lurk more and is not so chatty. I don't really want to HAVE to post inane comments and the such, but it is the way the forum works, so if I want to do anything here I have to give in to the rules or else leave.
