I can see how the aim of keeping bots and spammers out of the main forums is a good thing. However it can be a pain for real people to have to jump through all these hoops. I would also have thoughts that bots and spammers could still get through...
I guess if it's working I see why they keep the system in place.

Oof, I think I'm going to miss out on blowing my whole BTC wad on some ASICMiner shares because of this restriction, but maybe that's for the better. I'm still unsure when and how much dividends will be coming out of that company per share.
Must.. fight.. urge.. to speeeenddddd.

After looking at all settings I realized there's prob a new account restriction. So I went to create a new account and read what I stupidly missed before: "
"RESTRICTIONS FOR NEW MEMBERS
After registering, you will be unable to post in any section except "newbies" until you have spent some time on the forum and have published a few posts."
I feel dumb.

I thought after I had 5 posts in Newbie I would be able to post in other areas but then I read that there is an automated process that can take up to 10 minutes to see the number of posts have been made.

Pretty much. Talk like a human, though. The main goal is to catch spambots before they make it into the main forum, which makes their presence both more annoying and more difficult to clean out.

"The powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent meetings and conferences. The apex of the systems was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporations. Each central bank...sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world."
