why does a login count as a post in the 360 second timer. i think it catches a lot of newer people out.
is a login that counts really required ?

Sadly that's how the system works , it pisses off new users but once you gone past it , its all worth it, but yeah its hard to survive those first 14days. :p

Exactly. And search limit is also stupid IMO.

A draft is now saved whenever you post or preview a PM or post. You can see your saved drafts here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=drafts

It is a good feature, but could've used it when I first signed up as the 6 minute restrictions used to get me a lot haha.

I'd suggest you simply copy each message before posting and try again after some time whenever you fail to post.

If you lose a post due to the limit, a draft will be saved.

That's really a great feature. From when we are having it on BitcoinTalk ?

Basically , you need to post once ever 360 seconds for the first few weeks.
By the time you reach Jr. Member , you will only occasionally blocked , and once you finally reach Member, you will not notice it unless you spam.

I'd suggest you simply copy each message before posting and try again after some time whenever you fail to post.
The transition will happen naturally , you don't need to really look at all the formulae.

Another benefit other than stopping spambots is that it teaches Newbies to post less often.

It keeps saying the last message sent from your IP was less than 360 seconds ago. OVER. And OVER. AND OVER. AGAIN.

It's because you have the status 'brand new', when you become 'newbie' you can post faster. The higher the rank, the shorter the waiting time.

No, that's not correct, the limitations for "Brand New" and "Newbie" are the same.
Please refrain from posting misleading replies.

Well, your description is not 100% correct as well.
If you have <= 14 activity, your post limit is 360 seconds, while if you have 15-30 activity, your post limit is just 90 - seconds.

You really need to make sure you wait the 360 seconds after posting. The limit goes down the longer you're on the forums when you get more activity. It's annoying at first but it you get used to it and it quickly goes down the more active you are.

"last message" includes all forum actions, such as logging in, posting, making a PM.
Please read the stickies in Meta and Beginners & Help.

After a week or two of regular posting, this limitation will start going away.

This is to reduce the amount of spam posts by new accounts.
