I have a problem with the Super User (and Stack Exchange) account limitation system. Currently I am not allowed to answer in any question. They say I need to reach 50 reputation points.
The problem is I can't reach that number of points if I am not allowed to answer. So how can I gain reputation if the only thing I can do here is to ask questions?
I have the same remark about Stack Overflow and Stack Exchange, I am just a viewer i feel bad about that.
50 rep is required to comment not to answer questions.
You can always answer questions (as long as you haven't been answer banned for poor quality answers).
Please take some time to read the following as it will help you understand the site better:
You can always comment on your own posts, and once you have sufficient reputation you will be able to comment on any post.
Why do I need 50 reputation to comment? What can I do instead?
How do I ask a good question? and What types of questions should I avoid asking?.
Note that you may have encountered a protected question. Some questions that have been observed to attract multiple poor answers by very new users can be protected, either automatically or by a >15K user. This might happen, for example, when a question describing a common problems gets linked to from some popular place, bringing lots of users in who are unfamiliar with our system.
To answer a protected question, you need to have at least 10 rep on this site. Most questions, fortunately, are not protected. Absent protection, any user in good standing may submit an answer using the text box at the very bottom of the page.
Once you get 50 reputation, you'll be able to comment using the "add a comment" link below each post, but please note that if you have a complete solution to a problem, you should answer instead of commenting.
