Newbie restrictions

[stoneyjonez]

Five posts is NOTHING! At first I was confused as to why I couldn't post, then I stumbled in here. I like the idea, in fact I think more forums should do this kinda thing.

 Glad to follow the newbie rules put in place and it's a good way to weed out the trolls.

This is much more sensible ... thank you! 

[bitc]

alright, now i know.
thank you.

The requirements sound very reasonable, the four hour limitation should stop people from randomly trolling however the requirements will not put an end to well planned trolling, however this is an unfortunate fact of the Internet and trolls that have no life will generally go as far out of thier way to troll as is needed. But here's an idea, perhaps make people donate a satoshi to get into the forums? That would demonstrate an ability to use bitcoin, although setting up that system may be tedious.. Never mind the way you have it is good too.

who do I PM to get out of newbi forums? Do I just post here?

let me out!

[archiecoby]

Wondered why I could not post before! 

Makes sense to try to avoid trolling I think

Will there be some message stating if a PM can't be sent?  I sent a couple out as a recently joined member (one post made not long prior to the PM), and I want to know if they got my message.  Thanks!

my misery will end in four hrs

If you are unable to send PMs it will say so. It should have gone through, you should change your Private Message options to save all outgoing PMs to avoid this in the future.

It's good that there are restrictions but if i have to post 5x to be released from the restrictions and i can only post here i'm going to have to make 5 posts here. I'll spread them out timewise. Hopefully nobody actually reads this thread. I apologize in advance if my upcoming 5 messages irritate anyone.

Hello,

I've been lurking for a while and would like to start participating.

I've posted another message, but I can still not PM.
Are there requirements on the first post ?

I recommend you read the first post on this thread.

So I totally forgot about the time limit and browsed the forums without loging on and despite spending some serious amount of time browsing/reading I still only have 2.5 hours of browsing time, so for all those noobs browsing without logging on I seeriously recommend you logon right now

[jgaztelu]

Thx for the info, is good to know where the limit is...

[lbsmining]

It's a good security feature - Thanks!

[Evolvex]

Ahhhhh I've just noticed I cant post else where - DAM i hate being a noob at things... but ok, I admit it, I'm a noob

[warmach]

thanks for the security feature.  Now I need to get past my noobyness...
