Title: Am I not allowed to submit any caption?
Post by: retweeting on November 09, 2019, 05:15:48 PM
While trying to submit a caption through https://bitcointalk.org/captions.php?submit, I have encountered the following message...

Sorry, you already submitted all of the captions you are allowed. If you have good ideas for captions, post in Meta.

I have neither submitted any caption, nor voted for anyone so far. Is it a bug?

It could also be related to your rank. I'm not sure if there is any limitation just like the creation of trust flags.

What is the post you are trying to submit? I can try submitting it for you.

You need at least 100 activity or 10 merit.

Yeah, I'm curious about that as well.  I clicked on the link and can see how you submit it, but I don't get what this is all about.

Ah, thank you TryNinja.  I haven't really been following that thread and hadn't seen that post.  I appreciate the clarification.

It's an special event:

Quote
To celebrate bitcointalk.org's 10th anniversary on November 22, let's collect the most historical, insightful, and funny posts made over these 10 years. Then for a few weeks around the 22nd, these captions will be shown instead of forum ads, and afterward the whole set of captions will be published.

You can submit a caption or vote below on the captions that have been submitted.
See: https://bitcointalk.org/captions.php

You can either submit a caption (an thread/post that you think is "historical, insightful or funny" with a title you choose/the thread's own title) and vote in the already submitted ones, so they show up where forum ads usually appear (bellow the first post of a thread). You can already see a few of them: https://talkimg.com/images/2023/05/14/blobdb3f88496b50e49d.png

While trying to submit a caption through https://bitcointalk.org/captions.php?submit,
I have never come across this kind of thing: https://bitcointalk.org/captions.php?submit

Only this time I saw what was happening in this Forum. Strange.
I hope this strange thing does not happen again.

It looks like I have to go into the eye and brain surgery room, if I see the post @ retweeting, like below.

What does this mean.
This is really bad.
Can you stop speaking planetary languages, try speaking earth lalanguages.

You may take a look here TP :). Which was already created to let everyone know about this event. Submit your caption to celebrate bitcointalk.org's 10th anniversary (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5195422.). Maybe you forgot to see somehow.
