I keep getting "you already posted this" or "need to wait 360 seconds" errors, despite my posts never showing up anywhere. System seems a bit glitchy...
I don't think the system is glitchy. You need to wait 6 minutes between posting messages or replies.
That much I understand. However, I made 5 post attempts in different threads on this newbie forum over a period of 4-5 days. Every time, it came up with "you must wait 360 seconds" or "you've already posted here". The post you replied to, was my first actual post that got through.
