Title: how to deal with the post lockdown timer other than doing many posts
Post by: agx56 on January 05, 2014, 05:56:10 PM
hi

i have very low post count and get this block message all the time (The last posting from your IP was less than 360 seconds ago)
often i forget that i searched and triggered the countdown by doing so, so i get the message and if i hit the back button, my message is gone.

can i stop this? can i get un-newbied by staying online a certain amount of time or buying PREMIUM service or some trickery?
i dont want to spam much posts all over the forum just to be able to use the search feature to find out of what i wanted to say has been said before  :'(

halp pls!

You can't buy a premium account as far as I know, follow the rules.
The limit should go away soon, keep reading for now :P

Yeah, it's a pain, but just hang in there.

It's admirable that you are reluctant to post "spam". Good for you!

My advice is to look for threads that are basically "there for spamming" and do your posts there. Or you could create your own thread to hold the spam. Sorta like this one maybe:

Anyway, Welcome, and good luck.

Okay, i see, thank you very much.
Well, its kinda crazy to do this to overcome a limitation initially rolled out to keep the forum clean, but i guess i'll just post in a couple of places until the lockdown wears off  :D
