It's a raw deal for sure, but it's by design that newbies can't post anywhere but this forum until their postcount is above 50.

Absolute shit policy in my circumstance.   I have been here a year and now I can't post in the forums I have been using for over a year. 

I should be at least grandfathered in.  Not banished to this worthless forum where only one person (nomad) can be expected to help with my  problem.  One day after my post of lost bitcoins I am already on page 5.  LoL

Ughhh same here, this sucks. So what should we do? Obviously nobody wants this board spammed 50 times by those of us who shouldve been grandfathered in in the first place. What was the reasoning behind this?

Makes sense. Lessens the amount of people creating accounts to bad mouth vendors.

and I thought I was tripping. I´ve been using the forums for a couple of month now. I like to read more than post sensless shiite so now I am stuck in the newbie forum after trying to post a review to a vendor which i promised to do. Is there anyway around this?

I deem you guys that have been around over a year not helping the newbs with your knowledge. Kinda selfish.

A key to success is honestly lurking in the forums. I can't tell you how many times that I have heard a veteran member here say that they lurked for around a year before making even their first small purchase. Caution is king.

I've been using the forums for a while too, and now I found myself unable to post and I couldn't realise what was going on... until I figured.
There could have been a rule about older member with a lowish post count. Lurking is good when you're a newbie, but when you're entitled to post, you should be able to in my opinion.
Well whatever, I guess DPR has his reasons. And even if he doesn't, that's the way it is. The only thing that stinks is not being able to review a vendor as I promised I would (a good review by the way).

I refuse to post meaningless comments to reach 50.

I do not have such high standards.

I also am quite reluctant to post utter meaningless shit, but on the other hand i want to get out of this useless part of the forum full of misguided information and useless posts.

People really need to look around and find some decent topics on security before they start buying things from SR.

I don't really want to spam like 45 post, just to be able to make a few normal posts again. There must be another way dealing with this... please ;)
