My guess is every thing will be back to normal either tomorrow or Monday at latest to many people complaining and rightly so.
-
time for them to find another solution : 1 week
-
A week or so sounds about right.
-
I hope not, but anyway thats me done at 50 finally, see you soon folks!
-
damned to stay alone
-
Congrats!! Only 5 more for me..
-
you're near,
29 for me
-
thing is even if they said a week, it is so easy to make multiple accounts that they can be made in advance.. it is not like you can do an IP block on someone
as much as i dislike it i get why they doing it
-
maybe to avoid vendors to create multiple accounts, so that they can talk good on themselves.. hmm...
-
Until it stops. Isn't that the way things generally work?
-
This sucks for sure, I can no longer reply on my vendor thread
-

Could be, but if they really want to they still can of course. It's gonna take some more effort though.
I can't see any other use for this either, I've seen people with loads of post writing about nonsense or asking questions that have been asked many times before and I've seen very helpfull people (who only pos lab results every now and then, for example) who have only ten or twenty posts. It's so pointless.

grrr
-
This is a REALLY shitty solution >:(
Suddenly, you cant continue the conversations you have in various threads, before you have sent a lot of meaningless msgs in this newbie section. ....sucks....
-
What are you guys talking about?
Modzi

This. Would have been nice if accounts created before some random date could have been excluded.
-
lol, and the spam bots have already moved in :P

the 50 post count rule to get out of newbie zone

So true and forces other to spam.

trollolol
-
To make sure your not a spammer, you must spam the newbie thread to get out... riiiight ::)
-
Getting closer...
-
eventually
-
47...
-
Ugh this is the worst timing :/ as a buyer who hasn't had a lot of problems, i don't have a large post count. But the one time my stuff is missing, boom! post limit.
-
I think this is a reasonable solution temporarily.
-
Testing... beep doodle bop beep beep.

IS THIS GUNNA BE FOREVER ????

bored............

Any time delay to post is pointless, definitely. Spammers will just make accounts in advance and slowly use them up as available.
Making minimum posts stops that but they really should've made it affect only those who didn't have accounts already..
-
for ever
-
it should be taken care of right away 50 posts is way to many
-
I think this is to help with 1.keeping sr more exclusive 2.keeping spam controlled and 3.keep vendors from posting tons of fake positive reviews. Once I hit 50 I think I will be glad they did it. ;D
-
trololololol
-
Haven't been on SR forums in forever and there's a horrible scammer at work. Bloody hell.
-
I agree, it sucks but a small price to pay considering the benefits... amiright?
-
Perhaps
-
I really hope this doesn't last long. I have begun to receive goodies in the mail and would love to be able to review them as requested. my journey to 50 begins now so I can write trip reports!
-
its rediculous iv been doing transactions for a while now i simply dont make topics so much so now i have to do this, i think its rediculous but w.e cant do anything but gooo with da floow
-
Not much longer for me either.
-
It is a shame it needs to be done but it will stop scammers (with hope) and less than honest vendors giving themselves reviews
-
There has to be some kind of alternative that is more nuanced than this...
-
I would post a gif of that sandlot kid doing the forever thing, but tor network is like a blast from the 56k past
-
you can't cure insanity
