I suppose this isn't a bad way of moderation. It does eliminate casual users who just want to quickly answer a question for one user though.

In my view the current system is very bad. It is unnecessary and it deflects the most valuable contributors, namely those that also have other important things to do instead of wasting their time in this childish way.

But I doubt that any amount of opinion here will change it. One of the most prominent features of the human mind is its strong inclination to force rules on others, no matter how idiotic they are. Add self-overestimation, righteousness, and simple stupidity, and you arrive at what the world looks like, this forum included.

The world is a madhouse. I am trying to look for the few small islands of sense. The bitcoin market itself may be one of them, after the initial stupidity has eliminated itself from it by giving its money away to the more sensible traders. Smiley

It is OK for me, because when I first found out, that I can not post, I had already spent more than 7 hours to read and understand what is bitcoin and mining. So the 4 hour rule makes a lot of sense to me.

It seems to have some kind of algorithm where it tries to guess whether you're likely to actually be active or just happen to have one page loaded in a minimized browser for hours. If you click to other pages every so often, the time should start increasing.

If someone was allowed to participate in main forums, can answer this.

1)Is the account status e.g. Newbie/Activated is automatically changed, or does it depend on something else?
2)Does this count as a "post"
