Rancid-Radio Posted January 2, 2002 its a good idea so that the forums dont get bombed with crap but it's weird. sometimes i can make 2 posts real fast and it wont do anything and sometimes i will post, wait a while, and when i go to post again i have to wait 60 seconds. whats going on. 0 Share this post Link to post
nxn Posted January 2, 2002 you're flooding the forums and the flood protection is turning on. Just wait a minute between replies. 0 Share this post Link to post
Bane Posted January 2, 2002 Or just don't post. It's easier. i think it's not that simple. we're stuck posting here, and it's hard to get rid of it. 0 Share this post Link to post
Fredrik Posted January 2, 2002 I wouldn't complain if the flood protection time was set to something higher. I need protection from my own flooding. 0 Share this post Link to post
fraggle Posted January 2, 2002 its a good idea so that the forums dont get bombed with crap Yes, unfortunately it seems it isnt working well enough. Perhaps ling needs to up the delay time a bit... 0 Share this post Link to post

nxn Posted January 2, 2002 One way to prevent spamming would be to give everyone a limited number of posts they could make in a day. But that would suck, then again, 10 posts a day is about enough for most people, 20 wouldn't cause a problem. 0 Share this post Link to post
Zaldron Posted January 2, 2002 What's the point? It's a forum, it's about posting... 0 Share this post Link to post
Kid Airbag Posted January 2, 2002 Yeah, I have a shitload of posts, but I really don't spam. Maybe I post something retarded once in a while, but it's not a huge long string of retardedness. I usually post 10-20 posts a day, and the large majority are coherent and rational. 0 Share this post Link to post
Fredrik Posted January 2, 2002 I don't spam either. 1000 posts by the way... ;P 0 Share this post Link to post
nxn Posted January 2, 2002 What's the point? It's a forum, it's about posting... Yes I know, I was just thinking of possibilities to keep the spam down. However the best one still is to get more responsible mods. 0 Share this post Link to post

nxn Posted January 2, 2002 they're doing a good job, although I think Lut is overreacting a little from the spamfest we had. Getting another one and letting the current ones use the ban-o-matic would probably be a good move if the spamming continues. Actually nah, just let lut and zaldron use the ban-o-matic and all is fine. 0 Share this post Link to post
Kid Airbag Posted January 2, 2002 Or at the very least give Lüt and Zaldron the ability to reset postcounts or something. 0 Share this post Link to post

nxn Posted January 2, 2002 However the best one still is to get more responsible mods hey lüt, he's talkin trash :p the "more" was as in the quantity of the mods and not as in the level of responsibility of the current ones. 0 Share this post Link to post
