Title: Posting error
Post by: ByronP on October 28, 2013, 12:02:13 PM
i keep getting "The last posting from your IP was less than 360 seconds ago. Please try again later." even though my last post was a lot longer than that. Any ideas?

Are you using a proxy, Tor, or VPN?

The forum erroneously counts "logging in" or "sending PNs" as "posting".

Nope, I'm behind a bunch of firewalls but they shouldn't interfere

The thing is, the software doesn't look for posting, it looks for POST'ing ;D

Just wait for that long and try again, don't log out and close the browser...

If I remember correctly, and I may not, logging in/out may also affect this. It's been quite a while, though.   :)

correct you have to be logged in for 360 seconds if you close the page go somewhere else and reload the page you still have the remainder of the time to wait
