You have to request yourself to put to whitelist.

it would be nice if this info was thrown at your face the very instant you create an account and get a info page once you log in for the first time :^)

Agh, brutal... 

[UtahNewbie]

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:
- Newbies cannot upload their own avatars.
- 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.)

Thank you.

Also from Utah (I live in the Sugarhouse area of Salt Lake City).

And also grateful for the obvious attempts at getting rid of trolls.

I guess it makes sense, I couldn't even find the newbie forum at first though, lol. I really just want to be able to pick up some bitcoin. Anyone near Nanaimo, BC, Canada?

[The Mafia]

It took me a while to work out how to post lol.

Glad I made it to this forum and found out.

If this improves the quality of conversations it's a good thing

[jamesrom]

I registered just so I could reply in a discussion I found interesting. Now I have to make some lame 'me too' posts before I can actually contribute to the real discussion.

This is just a random post.

[kriwest]

Whatever you have to do to keep the spammers and trolls out I guess.
It took me a few days to find the newbie forum though.. lol. Maybe I'm just blind.

[tomnavratil]

To be honest, I've seen this on other forums and find it as good thing. The whole "search before you post" makes more sense and the forum doesn't get totally cluttered.

[Bolivar]

This restrictions sucks

[Antipodes]

This is also a random post.

Newbie doing my time in the box.
Anyone know of a decent BTC trading/charting platform?

[sweq]

You should make a seperate subforum, so everyone can create a thread about themselfs

[floki356]

Oh god, took me 2-3h to figure out how to use this forum, i could not find that dang reply button ^^

Now i need few more posts..

[rottenchris]

I can understand why there are restrictions, but.... oh well
