These are the most draconian restrictions I've ever encountered when signing up to a forum. You guys must really hate dealing with spammers! Oh well, I guess if it works, more power to ya 
With the popularity of this forum it is understandable.

yea this is brutal with the hours.. I've been back and forth on these forums for many days at least, but never bothered to login as I couldn't post anyways lol, now I have to wait a couple hours. Oh well.. I mainly just wanted to complement someones work on a kernel.
Only 3 more hours, not bad but tedious!
so, iti 5 only? not too bad :-)
it took me a bit to even find out the exact number of posts to get the restriction off, 5 isn't even too bad! Wish I looked this up sooner.
Funny thing. To prove you are not a troll of spambot, you are pretty much forced to spam or post 5 nonsensical posts. Still, I understand the system, Im not complaining. Just spamming
It's seems counter-intuitive, but posting this message, as well as somehow spending another 20 minutes online in the form, should whitelist me.
I'm in exactly the same situation. Give or take a few minutes.

Hi nice to meet everyone. Been reading the boards for awhile but I had a quality statement I wanted to post on one of the Tradehill check threads - though I now see this forum has minimums in place.
Will continue reading and certainly sticking with BTC for awhile to come!

I should be whitelisted now... but I'm not so it seems to be a manual thing! 
EDIT: Ahh, yes its manual... ok patience

I agree waiting in the forum and posting how much it suck's to have to wait is annoying, but it proves that you have the patience = interest which mean you won't be a pain in the *** later I guess...
Yes, the waiting is quite boring but just gotta get through it, I guess.
Jep, i think so too, just surf daily the forum and i hope to getting out here quickly

The restrictions are annoying because the first posts are just garbage posts. An optional verification system would be nice.
I think the restrictions are fair so as to be able to prevent spammers and other bad individuals.
Hurray for forum staff and admins !
