Is there even a reason?

The Newbie Forums is a holding pen for people under 50 posts. Everyone that has reached the mark can't go back and post in there.
My conjecture: Besides quarantining spam, it's utterly useless and holds back people who might want to actually contribute.

But, I was in the middle of several conversations that I wished to continue!
I didn't like being restricted to the newbie forums, but that, at least, was understandable and reasonable.
But once I started several conversations that I wanted to continue, now I'm (in effect) banned from the newbie forums?
I'm afraid I don't see the sense in that.
I did nothing wrong!

It is kind of hard for veterans to help the newbies when they cant post in that section. Hopefully admins will fix this issue.

Yes. ^this.

It seems a little weird to me also. I'd like to contribute everywhere I can. But I cant anymore. :(
-
It does seem a bit counterproductive to actively ban veteran members from assisting newbies.
Wasn't that the stated purpose of the Newbie Forums?

Not sure why some can or could & some can't, but have heard several places that only newbies can post in that forum, or at least those under 50 posts. But we've posted & started threads with no issue, so maybe leeway for vendors?
