Flood control (take two)

Recommended Posts

I know we've complained about it before and it didn't get us anywhere......

 

however..

 

are you at least able to change the coding so that the flood control only kicks in when trying to POST the next message, not just when trying to start it? We could at least be typing out our message then during the 60 seconds.

 

I know the forum is very popular and it is only 60 seconds but for those of us who post from work (what? me?) that can be irksome when you have to wait, get side-tracked into actually doing some work and then forget. :P

 

Cheers.

Why do we have flood control on searches? If you search for something and you don't find it, you have to wait 20 seconds until you can search again. That doesn't make sense to me.

Searches take a lot of resources because the database is really immense, that's why its usage is limited. If everyone would have unlimited access + the bots playing with it then it'd cripple the forum's speed. Edited by Pronam
