Auto Refresh Plus, and go for a walk, when you came back a few hours logged in have passed...
That's why the newbie restriction is stupid if everyone have to do that...

I am having trouble sending my filler posts. It says that I have already posted 360 seconds a go, bit I havn't. How can I complain about the minimum post requirements while also increasing my number of posts?

I have browsed about 10 newbie topics and have nothing intelligent to say..

It's a shame u don't understand why there are 5 post newb restrictions put in place.
Long story short, we all had to deal with them for a good reason. If it were up to me the post count would go up.

+1
I'd personally make it twenty posts, and twenty-four hours.
Back on topic: Yes, most newbies have no idea why that's there, and if they could see, the answer is already in the Newbie section.
I understand perfectly. However saying you must post 5 times encourages spam posts. I'd rather just stick with reddit anyway.
Reddit does the same thing, IIRC.

I´m a newbie here, but i´m okay with 5 posts and 4 hours browsing around.

I tend to agree with the OP on this one.
In fact, another thing which degrades the forums is the selling of sig space. I get paid for posting many times per month. Thus I say stupid things like this post. That's life, I guess.

What's wrong with you?

I'm assuming it's just an anti-spam measure. It's a nominal amount of time and effort for someone new to do this, but it's more of a bitch for a spammer or a bot to do.

I have been lurking for quite some time on this site.
Finally made an account, and now stuck in this walled garden that is the newbie forum.
Soon I will be free!

These rules are too strict, it should only be 2 hours and 3 posts.

The restrictions that are in place are pretty meagre so I don't understand why people still complain..

yeah what that guy said...
Some people just like to roam around the forums for hours... Its a shame in order to reply to anything other than these posts is sad.
I've been roaming around these forums for about a year now created an account recently and now have to post crap like this to finally get actively involved.

3 hours too long.

I was stumped by this rule. I registered a month ago and couldn't figure out why I couldn't post.
I realize it's at the bottom of the signup form. Guess I should have read the whole page, eh?
However, it would be a nice touch to move the Newbies forum to the top of the forum list for newbies only.
I completely missed the fact that there's a newbies forum further down the page.
Just a thought to ease the pain for future newbies.

They should make it more obvious. A lot of newbies have difficulty finding this section.

it was meant to prevent spamming/trolling.
