Anyone else sick of getting the flood control message?

is 30 seconds really necessary now we have such stringent member signup rules?

If so, can we have a group we can request membership of that opt's-out of the flood control?

i'm sick of only being able to respond to 2 messages a minute!

EDIT: for those that have never seen it, its a screen that looks amazingly like this one:

I'd considered 30 seconds very reasonable. How long does it take for you to think about/type a post for goodness sake! :D

OK we'll go with the majority.

when your popping thru the forums on your 30 minute lunch break, and you have a few minor comments to make (i'm sure denzel is with me on this too, as he has a habbit of posting alot in one go) its a hassle having to wait in my eyes.

just wanted to throw it out there, see what others thought.

Might liven things up a tad, if we can use the forums quickly, like a quick chat session, as i know some of us do!

Most of the time it isn't an issue, but there has been a few occasions when it's annoyed me... You could always disable it for a week or two and see how it goes.

i can see it now

a million :lol::lol::lol: 's in a row or pages of one word posts a bit like the word game only on steriods!

The problem is it's a global setting and we have a couple of open forums that don't need registration. Making this one open was pre-planned - honest it was! :D
