Newbie restrictions

[cryptid]

Post #2.

[LaidBack]

Glad there are some posting restrictions to make me go through and read up on what the general rules and etiquette is around here.

[c1oud]

Posted a request for preemptive whitelisting but it wasn't fulfilled and no reaction at all. At least smb shoud have notified if request was rejected or etc.
Now hope will not need that anymore, this is 5th post

it's quite annoying... but it serves the purpose
let's keep posting then!! 

[Jackten]

What exactly counts as a post?  Does it have to be oustide the newbie thread?

The reasons for the restrictions is great.

Due to a mass of trolling, only established posters are able to post in non-newbie sections. You are considered "established" if you have spent 4 hours online and have made 5 posts (new topics or replies).

Totally understand that. Unfortunately, I'm a "new" user because I want to use a new identity for privacy reasons. Wish there were a mechanism like Reddit's IAmA to verify someone's identity separately with the moderators.

This would be a very convenient way.

You'll be out of here in no time.  Just keep posting!     Maybe ask a question?

Glad to have you join!

But a bit frustrating if you're a newbie :-)

I suppose it's for the best - and that I hope is post #5.

Welcome!

@MikeH, well - you still need to wait 4h. It's not fun when you want to post anonymously :/

Rules make sense. BTC to 100!

[coinage577]

I guess rules have to be made by someone.  Unfortunately, there is no way to know who is going to game a system.  Anytime the system is evaluated by enough people, there will always be someone ready to twist or try to break the rules.

Ok so can I just make a few posts in this thread?   geeze I've been on the board since July last year....

Thank you very much for the info, was trying to figure out how to get out of purgatory:D.

[aspeer]

never used the forums before but I can appreciate this due to previous experiences. really not too much to ask I dont think and an easily met requirement.
