Remove Flood Control - Mystake - 03-01-2010
Or at LEAST put it down to 30 seconds.
I don't know about anyone else but I skim over threads before I reply so I don't need 60 seconds to wait.
iIts' more of a hassle than anything at this point.

I dunno.. the flood control seems to be a decent balance.
If anyone finds the current flood control poses a huge inconvenience I may consider lowering it. But it won't be removed... Bots live on flood-controlless boards.

I was trying the "ask for too much/more than you want, settle for less/what you actually wanted" approach.
30 second flood control doesn't interfere generally, but I do find that waiting a minute between posts is really, really inconvenient. Not including the time to type, to put up 3 posts takes 3 minutes MINIMUM. You can't type either, it stops you from even getting to that screen. So it's 3 minutes PLUS typing time.

i think 1 min is just fine.
i would think vary rarely one would post simultaneously that fast.
if u lower it to much you might just get people mindlessly commenting on things to raise there post count

Is that really necessary? And you may have missed the part where I said that you can't get to the page where you type the post before you post it.

If you really want to get a head start on a reply, use the fast reply.
If you can make a reply, skim the next thread, and type a fast reply in less than 30 seconds on such a consistant basis for it to become a nuisance you're not thinking about your post long enough.
I'd rather wait than have the board spammed to death, on my opinion.

I just got busted for being on-line at work too often, so it used to be a pain. Get the posts in as quick as possible. But not so much anymore, I have to work. <_<
