So, I understand the need to do this, but it really makes a huge pain in the ass.  Everything I learned about bitcoin I already learned from OTHER places.  As anon, I've ALREADY read bitcointalk for 4+ hours. 

Just do like reddit does, or do a 24 hour limit and ban everyone who doesn't comply.  That+ captcha.

5 post limit is quite easy, so why bother??


...it's so simple!

All you have to do is join in this thread and provide a better solution to the 5 post + time limit. If it works, it'll get implemented.

Please note, you have to fully explain why it's better than the existing system and explain how it'll work whilst being no more time intensive for Mods to implement.

Good luck everyone!

[Other newbies should feel free to discuss any solutions - pitch in, it's a community!]

Well that was a fun read  Smiley.

It must have cleared about an hour of your wait time Wink

You should try the Pirateat40 thread - that'll take up another 2 hours of your time.

Before you know it, you'll be able to post everywhere!

You know what, a lot of people claim they've been on the forum for years but just never registered. Well I guess none of you read about the 5 post + 4 hour limit, otherwise you'd have created an account so you could avoid the delay when you needed to post.

What does that tell us? You're too good to read about how this community works? You accidentally missed it? If you missed it, imagine what else you've missed.

Just think of the 4 hour limit as your opportunity to now find out how things work because up until you registered, you didn't fully know.

The rules are pretty much OK, and motivated. However for a newbie like me, who came here to claim the bounty for the Open Transactions logo, it's kind of a hassle =). Wish there was som way to move around this on bounties/competions, to attract newcomers this way.

I don't see the 4 hour 5 post as a problem at all, it took me about 10 hours before i even started my first hello post.... I been reading a lot, and learned a lot, and tested a lot on my own and haven't had the need to say anything in here until now that i feel more comfortable with everything

being logged 4 hours may be harder esp if your clock is broken

Yeah I am still waiting, but I think this way is best.  Got to keep the trolls and spammers out.  I've been reading Satoshi old posts, mind blowing stuff!

tnx for the great suggestion Smiley

Is this how you got up to 91 posts so quickly? By duplicating everything you say?  Grin

The five posts are not an issue, the four hour activity is when I just wanted to let someone on the forum know about a problem before I went to bed, oh well.

I agree, five posts are no big deal, but if you want to join in a current discussion four hours is a long time to wait. The forum post you were watching might have died or moved on in that time.
