Forums do this to avoid bot accounts and initiate you into the forum community.
That way someone can't make an account in 5 minutes and start spamming arguments to what you say. If the Newbie restriction bugs you that much, you have a lot of forums you'll hate.

You must have a lot of important things to say that you are so angry you are not heard untill after 4 hours of forum time and 5 posts!

The newbie restrictions are indeed archaic, there are better ways to handle spammers and newbies, like reputation systems, Ripple style trust (if your friend spams, you get banned too!), pay-per-account, etc. Theymos already claims he's working on a replacement that will eliminate the need for the newbie jail. In the meantime, try http://reddit.com/r/Bitcoin as that's where actual conversation happens.

(if your friend spams, you get banned too!)
That's actually how the Newgrounds Art portal works; you have to get recruited by another artist, and if you fuck up, the entire chain gets pulled from being able to post onto the portal. I like it a lot, TBH ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) It filters out all the newbie artwork and leaves the good stuff.

It's the only explanation for how people could spend so much time trolling.
