Can't figure out what is their consideration of doing this. No one answer questions from Newbie at all. Why they are so sure newbie must not raise good questions and have to be kept prison here...

I answer questions from newbies sometimes. The problem is that very few people actually look for the answer themselves, so we get many, many threads on the same topic, and it feels repetative to answer the same questions over and over and over again. Many times there is even a thread on the same topic on the first page of the section they post in. Like this:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=177133.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=244803.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=177136.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=245409.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=15911.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=244728.0

OK, so some of those are more relevant than others, but I just went through the first couple pages of 'Newbies'

Sure, but it would be nice to define the terms clearly. It would also be nice to have a possibility to pay some BTC in order for these restrictions to be lifted with immediate effect.

The forums gets about 100-1,000 people per week. Having all of them post on one day would be chaotic. Now think about paying. Think about paying .01BTC to get out of Newbie Mode. Now think about that amount increasing per month because of demand. PEOPLE BE PAYIN DAT .12. The forum would be rich. Now think about how much the donation groups would be. Wanna pay 20BTC for the current 10BTC donation package?

The forum already has way more money than they know what to do with, they do not need to add a payment to join.
