You must have been doing something to reset the limit. Searching, reporting, etc. Your IP doesn't matter for that once you're logged in.

Its just activity, see the formula you linked. Its boild down to 3 basic steps:
the first major reduction to 75-30 seconds once your activity is over 14, but still not 60 or higher the second reduction to 30-27 seconds once your activity is 60 or higher, but still not 100 or higher the third reduction to 12-4 seconds once your activity is 100 or higher.
Once you reached 500 actitivty you will be stuck at a 4 second limit, which I notice once in a blue moon.

You must have been doing something to reset the limit. Searching, reporting, etc. Your IP doesn't matter for that once you're logged in.
In my experience, the 360 second limit is reset any time, any account performs an action from a particular IP address. This means that if you have two accounts that are being used from the same computer, (account "A", and account "B" with "B" being a brand new account), then "B" will need to wait 360 seconds from the time that either "A" or "B" performs some action.
Additionally, I believe that you can get around the 360 second limit by switching IP addresses, so "B" could post at time n, then you could switch VPN gateways, and post again at time n + 45 seconds (or other arbitrary + value being less then 360 seconds).
(I am making this post at 4:26 AM GMT, and will test this to confirm). edit: it seems this has changed since I was running into the above problem several months ago. I tested both situations and it appears that both are now incorrect.

That's how stock SMF handles it, but I fixed this some time ago.

I agree with the timelimit for posting and reporting to moderators and pms aswell but the search bar? Now thats kind of stupid, whats the point of not being able to search things more than once every 6 minutes? How can someone use that as a negative thing?

IIRC search puts relatively heavy load on the server and is thus limited. The google search is not affected by this.

Don't worry about it, your limits will be reduce if you reach higher rank. Just keep posting in this forum nice and polite, and then you would never worry about this again.

I think the fact that i was searching may have been the problem, i thought the timelimit was only reset after new posts and personal messages the error message should be clearer

If within the waiting window you try to do any of the above things, you get a warning that you're gonna have to wait for that designated period of time and the timer resets again.... This might be the reason that you kept getting 360 sec warnings for 10 minutes...
