It is an alternative but a risky one since you can get scammed or get a negative trust from a default trust member.

It's not linked anywhere else right now, so you just have to bookmark it or remember to search for it.

Small fees but newbies still have to pay for the fees transaction, it's quite high for now. And this feature was made by theymos to prevent newbies spamming. So i think it's not worked. It's not about the money too.

By popular demand, newbies can now pay to have some of their restrictions lifted. If you pay the fee, you become a Copper Member, and you can post images. That's the main point of this: allowing newbies to post images. Additionally (and these might change depending on how things go), Copper Members currently have these bonuses: - Some of the same permissions as Member-rank members, such as reduced signature styling restrictions. (But none of the PM-related restrictions are currently lifted, such as the style limit or per-hour PM limit.) - Your "you must wait ____ seconds between ___" counter is reduced by 75%. So if you're naturally of Newbie rank, you only have to wait 360-75% = 90 seconds. If you paid an "evil IP" registration fee, then whatever you paid (in BTC terms) is subtracted from the upgrade fee. If you paid a registration fee a long time ago, you might even get a free Copper Membership due to the increase in BTC price. Just visit the link at the bottom of this post to check whether you have it already. I am aware that for most people the benefits of this membership are pretty lame. This membership is only intended to fill a specific niche; if you don't need it, don't buy it. It is not intended to be the lower-cost Donator/VIP alternative which I've talked about before as a possibility. I wrote the system so that I can easily add additional paid memberships in the future, but I might not ever do so. Not sure. You can buy it here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=credit;promoteThanks for this great explanation sir, now we know.

What are the standard requirements for posting images? Number of posts or account age?

You just need to be a Jr. Member or above as only Newbie accounts are restricted from posting images. As the member levels are based on time and posts it takes a minimum of 30 posts in 3 activity periods of 14 days each to reach Jr. Member level.

I hope there is an alternative payment like ETH payment because transaction fee in bitcoin is much higher than the amount you need to pay.

How will the forum have any bearing on that decision? What or if at all campaigns or bounties decide to pay for it is entirely up to them but they will probably still go by whatever your existing rank is unless they state othetwise.

You need to "wear" it, at the same URL where you paid.

The forum is unlikely to start accepting alt coins. Bitcoin will be the only option unless there's a real interesting project coming up but theymos has never really indicated he supports the alt coin market. You could always send a very small transaction fee and get it accelerated by a pool you might have to wait a little longer than usual but it could work that way.

Though newbies are new in bitcoin but they are also a user of bitcoin. As a user of bitcoin like other high level user they have a right to use image. By paying a small fee to enable their images is a divided system may be.

Exactly, this is a bitcoin forum and only takes in payment via bitcoins. Though newbies are new in bitcoin but they are also a user of bitcoin. As a user of bitcoin like other high level user they have a right to use image. By paying a small fee to enable their images is a divided system may be.
They don't according to the admin. The decision to remove the ability for newbs to post images was removed due to abuse by a certain individual spamming the forum with pornographic images by bots. This put a stop to that. It might be annoying for newbies and is a shame it happened but you only have to wait to become a Junior Member which isn't long (or just pay the fee if you can't or don't want to wait).

I understand the joy you can feel here because I could relate with the effort of having to wait for like 6 minutes to respond to a message or send a PM after the last one. If I had the opportunity then, I would have taken it as well. What we can hope for is that its not been abused by people because no matter how innovative an action is, some people will always look for ways to exploit for their own selfish reasons just like the notification via emails that was introduced only for people to use that as a means to lock their account after they must have sold it to someone else. The people I see benefiting from this and if possible restricted to them is developers who wants to post the announcement threads and start looking for someone to do if for them all over the forum. Aside that, in few months from now, this might not abate any of the clamouring issues we have around here.

Haha. You only have two coins under your name now instead of the five for legendary. I think those coins should stick to being associated with ranks really to avoid confusion and they certainly shouldn't downgrade your coin rankings (though maybe theymos overlooked anyone other than newbies purchasing this). I hope to see more ranks with better perks soon.

It does look pretty funny being legendary and some green trust and having 2 little coins

It does look pretty funny being legendary and some green trust and having 2 little coins This seems too.. odd to look at. I thought for a second someone impersonates you without looking at the rank. Just a quick suggestion though, instead of reducing the number of coins to two regardless of rank, why not make the last coin of the member's rank to be, well, copper? Like for example, Hero Members' 5th coin would be colored copper or whatever just to differentiate it from the others. Paying for that cool tag and getting two normal coins doesn't mix up. But then again, just my two cents. If ever this gets implemented, people would surely get that cool tag too! EDIT: Oh, John K. needs to update this.
