I pledge 1BTC to having the message rates either:


  • removed entirely
  • increased to 100 per hour
  • changed to 10 per user per hour
  • made to only apply to newbies and Jr members
  • made to only apply to someone who has not responded to you yet, and changed to 3 for each response they send you

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

You post every new thread in the Bitcoin Discussion forums and allow the mods to sort it out.   Undecided

Is this due to ignorance, laziness, or desire for exposure?

Ignorance. Is there a "bounties" subforum?

No, but there's a Meta subforum where there is a thread about this already (as said by above poster while I was writing). Why not run the bounty thing on that thread in order to not split discussions?

Good point (both of you). I'll move the topic and mention it in the other thread!

This would be reasonable. I hate it when I'm trying to have a PM discussion and get rate limited...

Why not have it so users at a certain post count have a higher limit?  I'd hate to think of a newbie sending 100 PMs an hour. 

If you have >1000 posts, 100 PMs an hour is reasonable.

sounds like a hardcoded SMF thing so someone will either have to create a patch or theymos will have to track down that part and change it. But I agree message rates for members that need it for business aren't cool.

I doubt the forums' codebase is extremely different than a default install, with the exception of several tweaks that have been implemented. So any software devs that wanted to download SMF V1.1.16 could have a look and see how hard it would be, and offer Theymos a patch to apply at his leisure after he reviews the code.

But then any new users can spam the shit out of everyone.

you can do a combo of that to make it easy to report newbies abusing the PM but I am still looking for a way to do it based on membergroup

There's no built-in way to change the limit based on membergroup. Fixing that has been on my to-do list for a while.

Yea I just dove into the code, it looks quite easy to do, just add a colmun to the membership table, then in PersonalMessage.php ~ Line 1100 just make a sql call to get then check it in that IF statement pretty trivial stuff. Good Luck
