"The last posting from your IP was less than 360 seconds ago..."

"The last posting from your IP was less than 360 seconds ago. Please try again later."

Only that's not the case...

Anyone know how to disable this? I can't reply to topics. I can only create new ones so if anyone replies to this I won't be able to reply...

I'm getting that same error message, on my FIRST post. So something is messed up and I end up just going back to Reddit. Too many bugs preventing me from participating in actual conversation. Please fix this.

It's not just posting, per se. I'm pretty sure if you're logging in as a newbie, your initial log-in / registration counts towards this system. So, you need to wait 360 seconds after that to make your first post, for instance.

Ya I don't like the feature of 360 seconds before you can post but it is to prevent people spamming so it has to be there!!

Only there is bitcoin spam all over the place. So long as it's bitcoin related it's not considered spam??

what can i say? those are the rules. if you plan to stick around for more than a day or two, it won't even matter. these rules drastically reduce pretty quickly. i can remember exactly how it works, though. happy posting!

I'm already out of the n00b prison, so that's cool. You're saying the 360 second rule will evaporate for me at some point?

yeah, i don't know what the rule is for me now, but i can't tell that it's even there. i remember at one point it was like 62 seconds. but now i don't notice it.

oops, i guess i said "can" instead of "can't" in that quote.....

I haven't seen the 360 rule second in a while either once I became a member.  Interesting.  I thought i still had it.

[BarkinTree]

i remember seeing it when i first started using these forums. at some point (wasn't long), i never saw them again. so they much get better or go away completely. not sure how it works though, or if it's even public.

ha ha ha, I'm not sure I took that typo into account when responding.

Glad to know the restrictions get relaxed!

What I find annoying is when I do a search on bitcointalk, and get multiple links to read, check out 1, hit the back button to go back to my search list, it says I am searching too quickly and need to wait 60 seconds.

Open the search results in new tabs and keep your search results on one tab.

I also think the time is unnecessarily long. Even 5 minutes would be an improvement.

Yep... I agree 100%
It stops the flow of reading and posting. Which is not such a bad thing if it slows down those paid posts 

Maybe some stopspam, honeypot etc API's need to be installed, so that spammers can get canned the minute they are reported. (thats what the button is for)

So did sending 10 msg from newbie forum solved this 36[sec issue?

That's because it is tied to activity.

I didnt post anything and I got this msg!

Logging in and searching counts as well 

[colinfx]

The 360 rule is activated also on a "search", so when you want to search the forum, do it through Google instead and it will not activate the 360 rule for searches. Eg if you want to search "cgminer problems" search Google instead for "bitcointalk cgminer problems" and your search will be free.

The 360 rule is removed automatically when you have been a member for long enough AND made enough posts. I do not know the exact numbers but if your read the newbie readme there is a lot of information in there.

I am still on the 360 rule, so I used my 6 minutes to make this post - hope you find it helpful!

Cfx.

I think I read that logging in counts as a post.
