You can only post in the Newbie and Local sub-forums till you have made one post and waited 4 hours.

I fulfilled that after my first post! This should no longer be the reason for the issues.

You fulfilled the 4 hour wait time after your first post? Maybe you did, but both are requirements before any newbie restrictions begin to be lifted - my point being is it isn't just some "unknown level."

The other two restrictions are you need 1 post to be able to send a PM and 10 posts to put a link in your sig.

10 posts to put a link in sig does NOT address the issues I posted.

Nor was it meant to. I grabbed a block of text from the given reference, but didn't exclude the irrelevant portion. I thought you may be capable of deciphering important bits of information for yourself and disregarding the rest. Maybe someone else is up for selectively spoon-feeding answers.

You can only post once every 360 seconds to start and there are a few other things that trigger this timer such as logging in and searching.

This only partially answers the issues. I will soon be at 10 posts, and we will see what issues there are after that.

As far as I can tell, it answers 2 of your 3 issues. Not saying it changes them, but that's the way it is.

Not sure what is causing your last issue - but hopefully it doesn't continue any longer. Enjoy the forum outside of newbie jail.
