Yeah, this 4 hours of logged in time is a sort of bizarre account restriction.

I'm sure this has been brought up before but the four hours online requirement makes zero sense. All that does is encourage people to set the logout timer to one day and leave the forum in an open thread of their browser for four hours unless there's some other check to make sure people are actually active. Raising it to something like 24 hours since account creation and 15 posts would make a lot more sense.

How about an optional, nominal btc donation to skip the hazing

Sure it would be an interesting idea since users able to donate could be considered as not so beginners Smiley

Not a bad idea, though the restrictions aren't too bad. It's only reasonable to ask that of newbie members, as many new to Bitcoin may be new to forums and the appropriate way to utilize that forum.
+1 for the option to donate though.

There's merit in this idea.  7 Fingers is right that if you can make a btc donation, you are not a total beginner.  And if you are putting your quasi-money where your mouth is, you are not doing it to troll. Or if you are, you won't be able to do it forever.  Worth considering.

Of course all first posts seems to be here, either to praise or condemn these restrictions.  I'll do neither and simply state how much I'm looking forward to meeting the minimum requirements.
QFT.  ...but if these are the rules BCT wants me to play by, I'll play by them so I can join the real discussions. Cool

Yep.  Annoying, but it's not my house. I don't get to make the rules. But I can whine about them if it'll get my post count up ;>
