Title: "last post from ip was <20secs"
Post by: Fiyasko on February 09, 2012, 07:11:39 PM
So im just a little annoyed at how i cant send PM's after i've posted something, This 20second wait timer is a Great way to stop Flooding inside of threads.

But a post in a thread shouldnt Force me to Wait 20seconds untill im allowed to send a PM, I think this is a bug, A minor one, But lately it's been bugging me, having to retype a whole pm can be annoying

Did you press the back button? I think the message will be there, maybe it is browser dependent I dunno. But also how much did you type in <20 sec. Oh.. you could have an epic PM written in another window and just happen to send it right after posting elsewhere.

better method would be 20 sec timer for threads, and 30 sec timer for PMs. all mutually independent.

I've been screwed over so many times with form submissions I instinctively copy them to clipboard before hitting submit  :D

How annoying...

I do the same thing.. on really long posts I do them in notepad and then post them when I'm done, I hate hate HATE re-typing things that get lost due to Firefox crashing or something.
