"The last posting from your IP was less than 360 seconds ago. Please try again later."

Only that's not the case...

Anyone know how to disable this? I can't reply to topics. I can only create new ones so if anyone replies to this I won't be able to reply...


I feel for you, almost made me want to quit the forum

I have the same problem, I can t post even If i just logged on, can someone please tell me how to fix this?

I think I read that logging in counts as a post.

Yup, actions like signing up, logging in, searching will reset the timer.
So, mysicguy, you can't post when you just logged in, you need to wait 360 seconds.

IIRC, the time limit will be just 75 seconds when you reach 15 activity.

It'd be nice if the notice said something like this.  I'm usually just here to read, and if I want to reply, then I log in.  Annoying part was how it ate the reply I was trying to post when it came up.

The 360 rule is activated also on a "search", so when you want to search the forum, do it through Google instead and it will not activate the 360 rule for searches. Eg if you want to search "cgminer problems" search Google instead for "bitcointalk cgminer problems" and your search will be free.

The 360 rule is removed automatically when you have been a member for long enough AND made enough posts. I do not know the exact numbers but if your read the newbie readme there is a lot of information in there.

I am still on the 360 rule, so I used my 6 minutes to make this post - hope you find it helpful!

So did sending 10 msg from newbie forum solved this 36[sec issue?

what can i say? those are the rules. Smiley if you plan to stick around for more than a day or two, it won't even matter. these rules drastically reduce pretty quickly. i can remember exactly how it works, though. happy posting!  Grin

Thanks!

I'm already out of the n00b prison, so that's cool. You're saying the 360 second rule will evaporate for me at some point?

Im on 37 posts and still have the 360 rule

I also think the time is unnecessarily long. Even 5 minutes would be an improvement.


Yep... I agree 100%
It stops the flow of reading and posting. Which is not such a bad thing if it slows down those paid posts  Grin

Maybe some stopspam, honeypot etc API's need to be installed, so that spammers can get canned the minute they are reported. (thats what the button is for)

What I find annoying is when I do a search on bitcointalk, and get multiple links to read, check out 1, hit the back button to go back to my search list, it says I am searching too quickly and need to wait 60 seconds.

Open the search results in new tabs and keep your search results on one tab.

yeah, i don't know what the rule is for me now, but i can't tell that it's even there. i remember at one point it was like 62 seconds. but now i don't notice it.

oops, i guess i said "can" instead of "can't" in that quote.....  Smiley

ha ha ha, I'm not sure I took that typo into account when responding.

Glad to know the restrictions get relaxed!

i remember seeing it when i first started using these forums. at some point (wasn't long), i never saw them again. so they much get better or go away completely. not sure how it works though, or if it's even public.

I haven't seen the 360 rule second in a while either once I became a member.  Interesting.  I thought i still had it.
