This thread is for replying to the NEWBIE README thread. Keep the useless spam posts away, I'll be deleting them. |

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

I was thinking about removing it, but I see a lot of newbies coming here to post about it still... though now that I think about it I'm going to unsticky it. |

Or not.. ?
Stickying a bitinstant support thread can be easily seen as an endorsement of BitInstant. With all the delays and issues they have being having.. It's unfair to other bitcoin services too, and is somewhat useless to people outside of the united states (since they can only trade vouchers).
I'm sure that a forum thread is not the most efficient way of handling support, but why wouldn't bitinstant want the free advertising? And every time someone has an issue, it actually bumps the thread.

Is the whitelist thread still active at all? I mean does anyone read those requests and possibly whitelist their authors?

I'm not sure about the other mods, but I don't go through the whitelist request too much. Most people in there just make a post or two then request whitelisting. |

Can I be whitelisted/actiated before my 4 hours are gone, I have 6 posts and almost 2 hours on board, and I'd like to be able to participate in the trading forum here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=8.0 |

Yep, read through that posting already...I am guessing that I need to do the four hours/five post before I can do anything regarding Devtome. I did create an account over there already, but can't post anything yet

If you have something new to post about it, write up the post and PM me with a link and I'll whitelist you/move the post if it looks good. Otherwise go for the 5 posts/4 hours till you can post outside, or you could PM people if you have something specific to say to them. |

Well if you read what I wrote right above your post, you could have PMed me and asked to be whitelisted to post in an auction. Or you could just PM the person running it and ask them to put in a bid for you (probably the better option). |

I am glad I finally found the newbie section.
I just couldn't figure out why I could'nt post anything or do anything else besides reading...
And just like avantgarden I've been browsing this forum for a few months now and never felt the need to register.
So, here I am now, registered and this was my first post!

The newbie post said You can only post in the Newbie and Local sub-forums till you have 5 posts and at least 4 hours on the forum. Is that "4 hours" counted from the time I registered, the time I first posted, or the "Total time logged in:" counter I see in the webpage header? |

Its total time logged in and being active... takes a while! |
