Funny, I don't consider myself a newbie.  But on bitcointalk, I am!

Just two more posts and I'm freeee!!

I was wondering why I couldn't post! Thanks for the notice.

Hi bitcoin pro´s...
In 2011 I managed buying some bitcoins. Meanwhile I changed my laptop and I honestly have no idea how and where I may find my bitcoins??
I updated Bitcoin but the purse is empty... Do I have to enter a code or so??
Any constructive help highly appreciated! I think I bought at Mt Gox...
Cheers

Sounds about fair now to get my 5 posts

Does the restrictions have changed or are they the same as the ones shown on the first page of this topic?

[cannonfodder]

Post 5. Can I leave this wasteland now? 

[demosthenez]

Was about to complain about the restriction prior to 5 posts, until I read the start of this thread talking about reducing it from 50 back in '11 - ha!

I'm surprised to hear they were having problems back then. I had heard of Bitcoin, but never really looked into it until two weeks ago. It took me about 6 hours to read up on the algorithms and convince myself this was legit.

1st one, then.

[pumpatch]

Right then.....restrictions noted!

[theli]

sigh, as I see most are just posting here to bypass restrictions ... so am I now

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.)

I hate the 5 posts rule.. I made PM

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...

I hate the 5 posts rule too

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

Thanks for this information! Cleared things up quite a bit.
