It wont let me post anywhere at all. I havent posted once yet.
Log-ins and attempted posts count and reset the timer. You need to wait the full 6 minutes.
I kind of expected after several days and more than 20 posts, I wouldn't have to wait 360 seconds between posts... 6 minutes is ridiculous. For the first few hours or posts or whatever, to keep down spam, I get it. How long does this shit have to go on?
It decreases the more activity you get. Mine is about 28 seconds now.
I'm just saying, this is super tedious and discourages savvy users from wanting to deal with this shit. Great, newb jail, but after a couple dozen posts, it just makes me want to gtfo and not waste my time playing games with trying to post here.

Holy fuck, it just happened again, because I guess it's just been under 6 minutes. I've read the forums and been in the community a long time, just never got around to signing up and trying to contribute. Now that I try to contribute, it's one time waster after another, so glad I made the leap to sign up.
It's annoying for sure but everyone has to deal with it. Just persevere and the limit will be lifted soon.
