GFY needs advanced settings for fast typers. - GoFuckYourself.com

GFY needs advanced settings for fast typers. I read a thread, hit reply, type message then hit submit. Without fail, I repeat the process then get a message saying that I can only post once every 45 seconds.

Unless it's a really long thread the above stated process doesn't take 45 seconds.

I Second that

Its to prevent people like Vitasoy from posting more useless crap to increase his post count than he already does.

That's easy to do in the admin, Lens, change it and track the results!

Juicy D. Links · 02-06-2004, 06:21 PM

Hey, that's a pretty sig.

boneprone · 02-06-2004, 06:26 PM

I miss being moderator, there was no time limit..

I could post every second..

I hate that 45 second wait.. But it seems like its more like 20 seconds isnt it?

Says 45, but it seems less.

Its becasue certain people abuse the forum when they get banned.

boneprone · 02-06-2004, 06:27 PM

Ah, so there is an advanced setting. I didn't realize that different levels of users had different time delays.

We all know why it exists. I just wish it didn't exist for respectable people who simply type fast.

You can thank all the people who made bots in the past to increase their postcounts for that

The Truth Hurts · 02-06-2004, 06:32 PM

not as annoying as the 30 second search buffer..

boneprone · 02-06-2004, 06:32 PM

Boneprone,

During your testing did you notice if it is 45 seconds from your last successful post or 45 seconds from your last post attempt?

You get a 10 sec delay when you hit 15k posts

gornyhuy · 02-06-2004, 07:38 PM

I drink to that.

I was JUST bitching about the 45 seconds out loud, then I came back to the main page and there you were bitching about it too.

Bring back the 15 or 30 second rule, it makes all the difference in the world.
