Good thing it's only 5 posts. It's not a lot of bother when I need something.

Thank goodness it's only a 5 post quota and not 50 like other forums.. I'd have to do a lot of intentional spamming to get out of the newb section! Thanks for the info OP! I'll do what I can to contribute relevant info in other newb threads.

A bit of a bother especially when you've ended up in a thread here from Google and you need to make a comment about a technical issue.  Undecided

As someone who usually lurks, the minimum post count is kind of lame, but whatever.

The thing is... I've been reading the forum for a long time. And now I have to read three more hours in order to participate  Shocked

Isn't it waiting at least 4 hours and having 5 posts? Can't you post instantaneously once you get 5 posts and have been registered for some time?

Sometimes the internets are a bit like pre school.  The actions of the few. But okay. I will comply.

Due to a mass of trolling, only established posters are able to post in non-newbie sections. You are considered "established" if you have spent 4 hours online and have made 5 posts (new topics or replies).

If you have really good posts, you can post a request for preemptive whitelisting in the appropriate topic.

Also:
- Newbies cannot upload their own avatars.
- You must have made one post in order to send PMs.
- You need 10 posts to put a link in your signature.

Note that it may take up to 10 minutes for your PM or posting permissions to be granted. (The system automatically checks every 10 minutes and promotes people as appropriate.)

Thank you, sounds like a good way to moderate spammers.
