"Last Post by IP was less than 360 seconds"

Okay, I keep getting this message followed by "please try again later" wtf? I'm just trying to search things? Not doing anything malicious! Why am I being censored from searching through the boards too quickly? That is a bs feature! I'm trying to learn how to mine over here, and every time I search a new topic this damn message pops up....

Just thought I'd share my angst lol

Try this on Google:

Code:

YOUR_SEARCH site:bitcointalk.org

yep, you can't search too quickly... but i also noticed that you don't need to wait for 360s (6 mins) either.. maybe 1 or 2 mins..

it is annoying nonetheless...

Okay this works well enough.

Yeah still dumb tho, I don't understand the reason for it...

It's because search queries take of a fair bit of CPU cycles, and they don't want it to be an easy DDOS target.

Using anonymizers perhaps?
