Its a restriction for new members to avoid spam.

I got this problem too - didn't even post at all before getting the error.   Weird.

Log-ins count. You have to wait the full 6 minutes before posting.

thanks for the info

DO NOT CLICK ANYWHERE FOR 360 SECONDS. 6 minutes then you can click around and post...

Clicking and browsing around is fine, just don't submit anything or you'll have to wait again.

I believe the timer won't reset for those fail attempt to post with the 360s error.

Don't click "back", but instead go back to the thread and click reply once again.
From my own experience (when I was having <15 activity), it should work

my waiting time is down to 62secs now i don't even notice if there is any such limitation but just tried posting straight after one post just to check the time .. but after 15activity it is down to max 90 secs.

Yeah, it's annoying when you're at 360, but you don't notice it when it gets to a minute really as it normally takes you a minute to find or type another post. Not sure what I'm at now.

It is indeed down to 75 seconds.

What are the time limits on posting and the levels??
I know 360 seconds are for new people like me, but was wondering if there was break down somewhere on this.

Code:

waittime = 360;
if(activity >= 15)
        waittime = (int)(90 - activity);
if(activity >= 60)
        waittime=(int)(34.7586 - (0.0793103 * activity));
if(activity >= 100)
        waittime = max((int)(14-(activity/50)), 4);
