ddevault is correct. Normal users don’t have a limit. Certainly not five posts a day.

Some mod has put restrictions on your account.

I'm not sure this is the whole story

While sometimes it does look like some kind of throttling on your activity, I wonder if it can also be some kind of general throttling (site-wide)

Though the usability of that message could be improved, as for example, you could be given more info, maybe some timing on when you'd be able to post again, or at least something to let you know before posting

He mentioned that he didn't add his email address to his account which could be why his account is limited, to which he said he was not willing to give up because he's had "enough spam already." Just use a fake one.

I'm starting to see the absurdity of this post.

    It certainly is absurd to ask some simple questions which could be answered numerically for the most of them ... and then people go into some kind of field day to judge my character based on digging through 10s (!!!) of my comment history pages of 600 comments (someone said that number here, I didn't even know, did they write a script to compute it?), to judge my "emotional investment", and to judge me for not wanting to hand out my phone number to email providers, and finally they block my post by "flagging" it so it won't be seen by the moderation team and won't get an actual answer.

    It could have been as simple as telling me "The limit is N posts per M minutes", but no, we must have some kind of public character execution instead.
