"You can only post once every 40 minutes."

Question

Dear all friendly mathematicians,

When I tried to post my question on this site - I saw

"You can only post once every 40 minutes."

Is there a restriction on that in general? Or is that due to my low reputation? How much reputation do I need to gain to avoid such an issue?

Do I need to get that threshold reputation on each of the stackexchange site to avoid this issue on each site?

Many thanks!

Since I see that you have already asked 11 questions in August, I will add a reminder that you can ask at most 50 question per month. (This information is mentioned also in the FAQ post linked in quid's answer.) — Martin Sleziak, Aug 6 at 5:48
The limit to 6 question per day and 50 question per month (including deleted questions) is for all users, regardless of the reputation. — Martin Sleziak, Aug 6 at 6:07
I will add links to some related posts on this meta: What is the minimum time difference between 2 questions? and Is there a limit on number of questions a user can ask in a given time frame? — Martin Sleziak, Aug 6 at 6:10
I also see "You can only ask 6 questions in a 24-hour period." is this due to the reputation threshold below which value? thanks! — Марина Marina S, Aug 10 at 4:28

The threshold is 125 points. You are exempt on the site where you have that many points not all sites.

To note, all questions asked in the network count. Actually it is even IP based.

$\begingroup$ That is a restriction that does not depend on reputation points. $\endgroup$

$\begingroup$ thanks - does that restriction apply to 6 questions per stack exchange site? or the sum 6 for all questions on all sites? $\endgroup$

$\begingroup$ It's per site, and only in place on a few sites. Stack Overflow, Super User, Server Fault, our site. $\endgroup$
