Newbie restrictions

I hate the 5 posts rule too

There should really be a notification of this somewhere, or a link to this thread under the help section, under how to post.  I was absolutely clueless until I searched "how to post," which is really a counter-intuitive workaround...

Same here.. after 3 days of total cluelessness I finally found this topic and discovered why I was unable to post. Very annoying.

Well I just made a tonne of money holding Bitcoin for the past 2 years. I want to discuss speculation, technical analysis, and other things. It's so excited to see the price go up so fast and with the media coverage.

Newbie here.

Bit disappointed that these restriction have been put in retroactively (I joined before they where put in place and did enter some posts). A private message would have been in order to warn of this new policy

[crackisback]

Yes its not friendly at all and spamers will not stop

[damiank]

Makes sense to me!

The restrictions just stop people like me from getting help from the likes of bitinstant etc

I understand the need to reduce spammers and such, but I only joined to get a few questions answered from the creator of my pool.... this is going to mean I am not mining as efficiently until the "newbie" status is lifted. PIMA

I used to frequent another board with similar noob restrictions and the post limits never really stopped the undesirables, only slowed them down. I'm glad at least the search feature is not crippled, with that I've been able to learn a lot with 0 posts.

I think it smart

These rules make sense but I wish the hundreds of hours I've spent reading without being logged in going back to early 2011 could count

How much? If you don't mind me asking.
