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

I think you have to wait 360 seconds before posting a message.  Maybe to prevent spam and short messages.  I wish it had some type of timer or something indicating when its ok to post.

+1 been lurking this forum for a while now but never posted. 360 seconds is really hard to trace - timer would've been nice.

A timer? If you have a clock, simply wait 6 minutes and post again.
The restriction timer goes down the more active you are. Mine is about 45 seconds I believe with 42 activity.
(360/60=6)

Or you just wait and try again.

I have not seen that message in a very long time and im not even that long here, so it really is a temporal thing.

Well with your 98 activity I'd be surprised if your posting restriction timer was any more than 10-20 seconds.
It's just to prevent massive spam attacks in your case.

What is really annoying is the interaction with another blocker.

First you get blocked by "360 seconds ago". You wait six minutes. Press post again and get "You already posted this".  No I did not.

The attempt to post resets the counter. You need to wait the full 6 minutes before you attempt to post.

well if you said that's not the case, maybe you have few acc on this forum.... and if you post from one acc and then try from another you will get same message....   

[Kiki112]

when you pass a few levels you'll get away from that rule

just keep on posting and do as you did, one day the rule will disappear because you're no longer a newbie

This. Is. So. Annoying.

How about giving us an option to donate to the site to remove this?! I'll send 2-3 USD worth of BTC right NOW to remove it.

If you care to donate, you can always do it here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=178608.0

It really isn't that big of a deal, you just need to get used to it.  Also, the limits will be raised as your level increases.  Soon, it will be a distant memory and you'll laugh about it down the road.

You only need to withstand it for at most 2 weeks

We all have walked through that period

You're still 5 activity, which means you're clearly not ready to invest any time into your
forum accout - which means you're not gonna get the privileges of the other members. It's a fair system.

Activity (at least on my account) equals posts.  So you could spend all day reading threads and learning, but have a lower activity rating than someone who posts a bunch of 'me too' posts that add nothing to the conversation.

It only equals posts up to 14.
And if you don't post anyways - why care about the restrictions? They're only for posting - not reading.

Every couple of weeks your activity can increase by 14.
So, even if you make 1 000 posts within 24 hours, your increase will not be more than 14

Good point, well, I usually spend all my free time on other forums as Reddit and mostly I read threads , and I rarely write comments. 

[manoamano]

But you need to write here from time to time if you want to lift those restrictions.
