Oh that's so sad! I liked the newbie forum.

The newbie forum is back, but I miss it being required upon first coming here.

Yes, there was a change on membergroup and you now need 30 activity for Jr Member.
But, for OP and some other people, they have 42 activity but are still newbies because of a bug.

Please refer to the post made by theymos.

There's apparently a bug preventing Newbies from being promoted. I'll look into it when I have time. I don't think that there's any major disadvantage to being a Newbie now.

This happens sometimes, theymos just needs to hit the bot a couple of times with a hammer and that usually sorts it out.

I have 175 posts and I was a 'Member' a few hours ago.
Now my rank status on my profile is 'Newbie' yet I am not restricted to the newbie forum.

Why is this..?

Same to me. I was a member with two stars and now a newbie with one star. Huh

You fail to understand.
I am posting in this forum, which I would not be able to access if I was a newbie.
I don't know why my title has reset itself..?
