Awesome !

Hello everybody. Just registered.

I was pulling my hair off for 10 minutes thinking wth? I can't post anything. Thanks for clarification, now I know WHY.  Somewhat harsh but I agree and see no problem.

Probably won't post too much just wanted to ask when current DDoS started because everything was going fine till I restarted PC after minor adjustment inside the rig. Probably ~15.30-16 GMT?

Interesting

What a great idea...

[stimpi]

Great idea indeed, not many people would bother posting a few time in a single section a few times just to spam the board.

I might suggest the idea to some other boards I use a lot.

Very well mods, I'll play by your rules.

[jmillions]

Thanks for the info. I've been wondering how to join the conversation.

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.)

Surely it is not sensible to have this for really old users? I have been a member of the forum since 2011 and just a lurker and today I wanted to post something for the first time and it turned out that I can't. Wouldn't it make sense to have the restriction only for users that have registered in the last year?

Hahah, I guess if this counts it is barely a limitation.

[chevo]

hi.. hi don't know why I got the limitations, I think my univ IP is listed. we're learning btc in college so we're using our accounts here.

[Angril]

Couldn't agree more with the system. Although I hate the wait, I see where you guys are coming from and I have seen way to many forums screwed over by new members who trolled and were turds..

[gamerman623]

Okay. That's stupid but I understand.

- You must have made one post in order to send PMs.

I posted and still can't PM

I understand the rules, but It can hurt the auctions as well.  I would like to get in on the asciminer auction.
