Nobody's lurked for years on the forum. For those who claim they did, how could they never have discovered the newbie forum and this requirement? Chances are they didn't find the FAQs about posting etiquette either.

I've never lurked years anywhere.  Okay that's all I have to say for my first fluff post.  I'll try to make the other four better, so I'll wait until I actually have something to say.

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.

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.
I think 4 hours online is too much. I think that it should be 1 hour, maybe 2, but not more.

There's nothing wrong with the 4 hours requirement. I guess really special cases might come up, but how often do you really need to reply to something within 4 hours as newcomer?

Yea, it's kind of annoying, I'm used to lurking a lot until I've got something to contribute or some burning question. Now I'm here putting down posts discussing this Grin

Seems like a fair policy to me.  Although there is a small chance that I'm just using this thread to take care of one of my 5 necessary posts.

Hi, first of all sorry if I'm doing wrong replying on this post. The thing is that I've been looking for the way to send a PM to buy some bitcoins but then I realized that how I'm newbie I'm not allowed to do that if I didn't post first. Anyways I was looking everywhere how to post them and I couldn't found the way. So again, sorry if I'm doing wrong but I would be glad if anyone show me the correct way.

Sorry for my english it's not my native spell.

Thanks in advance.
