So, I have 5 posts and 4 hrs 3 minutes, and still considered a newbie. Any information please?
Nevermind, it lookslike my account got upgraded to the Jr. one. Thank you.

Trolls! Can you Block Their IP once detected?
Can we please block new discussion creation to ppl under 10-15 no-spam posts? new scams everyday.. it seems to be an advertices board this forum..
and maybe newbies start to search for similar discussion instead of open another one..

thank god they lowered it from 50 posts!
I prefer a good captcha over this BS.
50 was kinda silly. 5 is perfectly reasonable.
Hi folks,
i'm on the run for the first 5 posts. Whish me luck!

I made the mistake of posting elsewhere before posting to this forum. So will the mods be deleting those, or might they allow them to remain after noting that my posts were answering questions (rather than asking them like the typical n00b), as well as that I'm also now posting to the n00b forum?
Edit:
*sigh* And now I actually bother to check, and I see that the thread and posts in question actually are in the Newbie forum.
/facepalm

Also, you must have made 1 post to send PMs.
What's a "PMs"?
If the rule was changed to 5 then I'll just have to sit out the clock then. Sounds a lot better than 50 anyway, that's a bit excessive.
My time logged in says 33 minutes even though I have twice logged in, posted, and left myself logged in for several hours.
This seems reasonable.
You're right now that I've got six this seems less restrictive
So the rules changed I guess! I just made a few posts last week and didn't seem to run into this restriction :-(
5 isn't too bad.. it sure beats 50.
Yesh this bites, at the same time do what you gotta do.
Sounds like a good solution, pity it has to come to this but spammers have no morals
Wow, this is a pretty poor solution. I'm not really that new I just haven't really posted and right when I wanted to I found out I need 5 posts now even though I didn't before? Lame. I guess here's number 2.
