Why are so many of my posts not being posted?

Grow up kid! The world does not stop if someone is dead. In the same manner the forum will grow without you. Look at it's history and those who have been here for long. They have grown and have achieved reputation which is known and acknowledged by the Bitcoin community within and outside the forum. We don't need brats like you who never bother to read the rules of posting. It is imperative that you follow the rules and guidelines before cribbing about something that you don't know or failed to understand.

@pakhitheboss, do you know OP before? I think the words you used were so hash for a newbie who knows nothing about the forum wait time. I guess when you were a newbie, you didn't just know about the wait time. It took you some times to figure out how things work here. This is one of the nasty behaviour towards newbies we talk about. I suggest you be more lenient with newbies.
Op, please you need to read what DdMrDdMr said above. I think by now you shouldn't be encountering such challenge because your activity is grown.

Im constantly seeing the message.
"you've already posted this, duplicate, refresh".

Yet its false, when I refresh, my post is not there.

Im a genuine user trying to contribute to the forums, but feel its a pointless waste of time as my posts and threads dont show, or I get a message like above or "wait 360 seconds", only to wait and then get a message "already posted"

I don't think I have encountered such from my own browser and I mean after getting the error and when I checked I don't see the post because it always shows up just the way it tells me that I have already posted this post before so am suprised to see that for you the message doesn't show up. I think the issue is from the browser you are using, and I usually get this message when maybe their is maybe a delay in network and it waste time to post then when trying to post it again I get this error message.

Yes, I was a newbie once and I did learn about the forum policies the hard way. But, I never complained about anything that happened to me when I was a newbie back in 2018. Please check his posting history and his attitude towards the forum and if you say you did not find anything wrong then I cannot help it. Patience and reading replies for hours and hours have led to my way of replying to someone who has a habit of cribbing and acting like a kid. I expect a newbie to first read the posting policies before coming on this board and questioning the mods for doing their job. BTW, this topic was first posted on the Meta board and then moved to this board.

This occur mostly when many posts are made within a short period of time and this is done to avoid spamming within the forum.

Patience is one of the key to invest in the crypto space and also to stay long in the forum. If just 360 seconds (6 minutes) is too long for anyone to wait, then such person lacks patience and may find it difficult to survive in this space.
