As a newbie, you can do just about anything like the regular folks except, there are certain restrictions that exists due to your rank and that has got nothing to do with signature campaigns. Such restrictions includes but not limited to;
• Wearing signatures and avatars, you don’t have that space open for you
• posting of pictures which isn’t readily available until your of the member rank (you would need that to give your thread a face and better look for appreciation)
• Sending of pm (private messages) which has a limited number and most users don’t allow newbie pms
• You have a time limit in between posting
And a few more.
This along with the reputation of your account of which, a newbie obviously have none as reputation are built over time, accounts for some of the reasons why hiring managers becomes necessary. Projects are given importance due to the credibility of its management team. Some of the reputable managers of the forum remains;
Icopress,
CryptopreneurBrainboss,
Hhampuz,
Little Mouse,
Upgrade00,
AB de Royse777 and a good number of others too, I don’t exclude me though, could give you some canceling or even aid you in the management if you want. With that on the side, you could check out the managers above for guidance if you ain’t sure of how to go about it.
Alternatively, to by pass some of the restrictions as above, you could get a Corper membership by following the instructions from this post.
By popular demand, newbies can now pay to have some of their restrictions lifted. If you pay the fee, you become a
Copper Member, and you can post images. That's the main point of this: allowing newbies to post images. Additionally (and these might change depending on how things go), Copper Members currently have these bonuses:
- Some of the same permissions as Member-rank members, such as reduced signature styling restrictions. (But none of the PM-related restrictions are currently lifted, such as the style limit or per-hour PM limit.)
- Your "you must wait ____ seconds between ___" counter is reduced by 75%. So if you're naturally of Newbie rank, you only have to wait 360-75% = 90 seconds.
If you paid an "evil IP" registration fee, then whatever you paid (in BTC terms) is subtracted from the upgrade fee. If you paid a registration fee a long time ago, you might even get a free Copper Membership due to the increase in BTC price. Just visit the link at the bottom of this post to check whether you have it already.
I am aware that for most people the benefits of this membership are pretty lame. This membership is only intended to fill a specific niche; if you don't need it, don't buy it. It is not intended to be the lower-cost Donator/VIP alternative which I've talked about before as a possibility.
I wrote the system so that I can easily add additional paid memberships in the future, but I might not ever do so. Not sure.
