Hey everyone,
I just wanted to mention this really annoying bug, which has kept me from actively using this forum for a long time now. When you try to post a new reply or thread as a junior member, you will always get the message that your IP address has posted once before in the last 360 seconds. The procedure to get around it is as follows: 1) Click post reply 2) Wait 360 seconds 3) Refresh 4) Go back a page 5) Change a character 6) Click post 7) Go back 8) Copy the message 9) Refresh 10) Paste the message 11) Post
Mind you, this also happens to me using other computers and browsers on different networks. So where this feature is meant to force users to spend 6 minutes writing their message, it makes them spend 10 minutes trying to actually post their reply.

It's annoying for sure, but It only seems to happen with newbs. It'll soon pass.

it's a rule for newbies and it's very annoying,you won't be under the influence of that rule as soon as you get the "Member" Title though and the limit moves to a post every 60 minutes.

Time is money, people ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) . Edit, goddamit it got me on this post ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Wow, PrimeDice seems to be the thing now! I remember when inputs.io's signature deal was all the rage.

Yeah, there seems to be more and more people signing up. Can't blame 'em. It'll be interesting to see if bitsplay.ga pays out though and how many people jump ship.

I think it goes away after your activity hits 28. Not sure though.

Well I believe you're just talking about the limitation that you have to wait 6 minutes between posts. This always happens before a post no matter how much time has passed and whether you have actually written any other posts, and it seems rather pointless?
If all this is on purpose, they should probably do something to inform the newbies about it in the warnings ^^

Time logged in? The activity number is determined in this way: time = number of two-week periods in which you've posted since your registration activity = min(time * 14, posts) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=237597.0

It's not a bug, it's a feature!
But seriously, wait until you level-up in activity and it'll pass.

It's true. You don't to allow new accounts, which could be bots, to be able to spam the boards with useless and pointless posts. Definitely helps keep it clean. If you have an issue with it..post more!

It's funny that the majority of the complaints are from tools with paid sigs.

Ha, well can you blame us? It is annoying when we're trying to post and getting shafted by it, but I guess it wont be so bad when we reach higher status and don't have to deal with such time-restrictions.

Calling people tools is a bit harsh. The time limits don't bother me now as they're virtually non-existant, but they did as a newb when you lost posts you'd written out, so I can understand peoples' frustrations, especially when they're trying to get paid for their posts.

What flags might those be? I enjoy contributing here and getting paid for it in the process. Don't think there's anything wrong with that.
