Do you have to post then sit at that same post for 4 hours?

Nope, read my post above yours. There is no newbie restrictions now.

And then I read the post stating coin give aways are forbidden.

Yup, all the altcoin giveaway thread is locked now.
After all, this is bitcointalk, not altcointalk.

And then I read the post stating coin give aways are forbidden.  WTF?  I have been seeing these since first coming here from google links and the first time I decide to put my name in the hat, I find it can get you banned.  That's my luck.  Had the same luck with fricken doges when I decided to ride out the drop and not sell my 3,000,000 at their peak only to find that now the devs decided to keep adding unlimited coins so that value won't be going back up anytime soon.

Timing is everything in the crypto-currency world.  Don't believe it?  Ask the big bitcoin holders that started mining two years before us noobs.

It shows 4 hours and 12 minutes above but I still can't reply on another post...OK...I'll be honest it's for a coin give away which I have already moved my miners to but still want the extra 2,000 coins.  I have posted in the past concerning the crazy Coinye's and 0daycoins.com and have a 4 hour Total time logged in above.

I'm pretty new to this and have been mining on 6 rigs now for over two months. To all the other newbies out there, you really can get some good advice on here as to setting up rigs, alt-coins, exchanges...but I still can't tell you exactly how to get past the newbie status.

When OP made this thread, there were some newbie restriction in place.
So, he needed to make a post and wait 4 hours before being able to reply in other places.

But NOW, all the newbie restrictions are gone.
You can go straight to the board or thread you want to reply. What you need is just to wait 6 minutes between each posts; and actions like logging in and searching will reset the timer.

New members are confined to the newbie area until they have a certain number of posts and time on the site. I think it is something like 5 posts and a certain number of hours logged in, can't remember exactly though.

All you need is one post in newbie area and wait 4 hours
Thanks for your advise Smiley

I would like to reply to a thread, but I don't see a "reply" button on the page anywhere...
Why is this?

Please help...I want to get in on the BabyJet giveaway at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=323235.0;all

Thanks in advance!  Grin

You currently should be good to go as you are now marked as a Junior Member. Junior Members and above can but when you first start it has you as a newbie and keeps you from such things because they are wanting to limit the chances of spam bots. Hope that helps.

Actually, I don't understand why I can't post on Btc-e's Russian thread, when I'm able to post on any other thread I wish?

This is the thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/btc-ecom-bitcoin-namecoin-litecoin-usd-02-29698

Because that thread is locked.
