having 8 hours logged and still can't post replies  Huh except the newbie sector  Tongue

What is sad is the fact that you have not read the rules.

1. you need 4 hours
2. you need >5 posts
8 hours only  satisfies one requirement.

I find it sad that sites need to go to such measures to root out trolls Angry
Seems pretty sensible, considering how bad some forums can get.

Once you get past the newbie period, you are now part of a forum that has done some attempt at filtering out trolls.  It can be more enjoyable knowing that most of the members are not here trolling.

It sounds reasonable to filter out those that are just trolling.  Smiley

Interesting, it is a strange  "CAPTCHA" I guess.  From what I see on here, it's really not stopping "trolling"  INUBA ~ I'm looking at you.


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:
- 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.)
