Newbie restrictions

[thelonelysouls]

thanks for the heads up

[kustaava]

Frustrating, but understandable. Don't have anything original to say on the subject, lol.

[orcinus]

Don't really see the point as this will only filter out spam, not trolls.
But hey, you know the best, i guess

So how many post i have to make to post out of Newbies section?

4 or 5 post and "4" hours logged in I think? Which equates to like 10 real hours.

[orcinus]

Which, for some, apparently equals to 10 posts. Or maybe 20. Or maybe... who knows really.
The whole concept should be renamed to "newbie tar-pit"

Thank you Syl.

But you can't just afk with your account logged into bitcointalk. You actually have to browse for 4 hours. and LEARN stuff.

Ok,so let's post here! 

Is there introduction area or somethin like that!?

[orcinus]

Yes, it's called "Introduce yourself". Quite unexpectedly.

[l3sny]

well... I did not read the disclaimer when registered. Quite original idea to limit the newbies to one section. I have nothing more to say.

[kizosim]

great idea..

[Syl]

And testing to confirm this newbie status is over...

[nick0016]

Took me some to discover why I couldn't reply in other sections hehe...

[aepfel]

that generates much spam...

but on the other hand it maybe also prevent much spam.

[Wave]

Seems quite a pain, but I can respect the rules

[r00t3d]

I can make PMs now?

[Devious]

Interesting, it is a strange  "CAPTCHA" I guess.  From what I see on here, it's really not stopping "trolling"  INUBA ~ I'm looking at you.

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).

If you have really good posts, you can post a request for preemptive whitelisting in the appropriate topic.

Also:
- You must have made one post in order to send PMs.
- You need 10 posts to put a link in your signature.

Note that it may take up to 10 minutes for your PM or posting permissions to be granted. (The system automatically checks every 10 minutes and promotes people as appropriate.)
