Well it force "newbies" like myself, to browse the forum, before you spam, with questions already asked.
So in the end, I think it may be a good thing.
Just wait it out.. Not a big thing.
Topic: How do I post? My posts after first two are all rejected, I waited 1 hr (Read 1173 times)

This time limit is so annoying. Can't wait till it goes away

Once you are Jr. Member you wont have any problems. The higher your rank, the shorter the waiting times
IIRC, around the point of about a Member the minimum time between posts is small enough that you won't get notices telling you that you can't post unless you are literally spamming a new post every couple of seconds. I'm not too sure whether it gets lower from there on - has any of the staff ever mentioned it for the higher levels?
hmm. I guess 11 seconds is the lowest then? Maybe its because it was on a same thread? I dont know..
the minimum is 4, happens when you get 500 activity or more. See my other post here
You can find the exact formulae on the sticky newbie readme.

from newbie readme:
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);
so your waiting time will start to decrease in the 3th week, when you have 15 activity, and will be no less than15s 4s
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);
so your waiting time will start to decrease in the 3th week, when you have 15 activity, and will be no less than
This is on point. When your status is changes, the wait time gets less.
So just way until you become a jr.member and the activity grows.

I still have the same thing, but I just wait 6 minutes and I can post again, I think from 16 activity you need to wait a shorter period of time before posting again.
Thanks for the info. May 18, 2014, 04:54:54 AM

Surf the forum for 6mins++ and see if your "Total time logged in:" has increased by 6 minutes or more. You can now post. The main reason is because the system cannot detect if you are active or not so the total time logged in will not increase if you are not active.
It's not based on your active time but the forum time. It really doesn't matter wether you're active or not; just wait at least 6 minutes after you post or log in and you'll be fine.
You don't have to surf the forum; just wait. Your total time logged in only counts for active browsing/posting though, but the time period you have to wait between posts isn't based on that thankfully.

Not much you can do, you have to wait it out. Wait for the 360 seconds etc.

I don't get how you felt like you were having problems with posting, yet managed to make a thread about it?
Try creating a new account and you will see. This is the most frustrating time I ever had with any forum. It took me many failures to find out that as a newbie I could post here but not in the main threads. After each failure I would do something else in disgust and when I came back to this forum my session had expired, I logged in and tried to repost the message I want to send, and it always failed, telling me I had not waited for 360 seconds. I tried creating another account, but the restrictions are IP locked. It took me a long time to find out it was something to do with being a newbie, and even then I could not find out what exactly the restriction are, only answers to answers to other queries that hinted that after some unknown number of posts that keeps changing, I would be promoted beyond newbie one day.
I provided an email address when I registered, but nothing. Why not send a welcome message explaining the restrictions to first time users?
Why not search for the information you need and read it? Is it that hard?
