Yes. You need to make sure you wait the full 6 minutes before you post or attempt to post. Log-ins count as well and reset the timer. The time limit goes down the more activity you get so you'll just have to bare it for the time being. Your posts are also saved in a drafts folder if you want to repost them after the 6 minutes.

First I have to say WOW. Just seconds after my report, it has been moved to Meta.
This mod works really fast.  ;)

Q: Why do I get the "The last posting from your IP was less than 360 seconds ago." error when I haven't posted today?
A: Logging in, sending PMs and reporting posts to a moderator will also be counted as posting and extend this limit back to 360 seconds. Don't worry: as your activity increases, the 360 second limit will decrease as well. Here you can see the algorithm how the posting limit is caluclated based on your activity: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=237597.msg4131557#msg4131557
