60 second waiting time....
(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)
Posted by: Nfested
Hey Canis,
Why do we have to wait 60 seconds now before we can post again? It's not like people will post every second, but sometimes when I try to post now I get this message that there must be 60 second intervals between posts, this is somewhat annoying.
Why was this implemented?

So you don't Spam?
60 seconds is not a long time to wait.

Scene: A cafe. One table is occupied by a group of Vikings with horned helmets on. A man and his wife enter.
Man (Eric Idle): You sit here, dear.
Wife (Graham Chapman in drag): All right.
Man (to Waitress): Morning!
Waitress (Terry Jones, in drag as a bit of a rat-bag): Morning!
Man : Well, what've you got?
Waitress: Well, there's egg and bacon; egg sausage and bacon; egg and spam; egg bacon and spam; egg bacon sausage and spam; spam bacon sausage and spam; spam egg spam spam bacon and spam; spam sausage spam spam bacon spam tomato and spam...
Vikings (starting to chant): Spam spam spam spam...
Waitress: ...spam spam spam egg and spam; spam spam spam spam spam spam baked beans spam spam spam...
Vikings (singing): Spam! Lovely spam! Lovely spam!
Waitress: ...or Lobster Thermidor a Crevette with a mornay sauce served in a Provencale manner with shallots and aubergines garnished with truffle pate, brandy and with a fried egg on top and spam.
Wife: Have you got anything without spam?
Waitress: Well, there's spam egg sausage and spam, that's not got much spam in it.
Wife: I don't want ANY spam!
Man : Why can't she have egg bacon spam and sausage?
Wife: THAT'S got spam in it!
Man : Hasn't got as much spam in it as spam egg sausage and spam, has it?
Vikings : Spam spam spam spam (crescendo through next few lines)
Wife: Could you do the egg bacon spam and sausage without the spam then?
Waitress: Urgghh!
Wife: What do you mean 'Urgghh'? I don't like spam!
Vikings : Lovely spam! Wonderful spam!)
Waitress: Shut up!
Vikings : Lovely spam! Wonderful spam!
Waitress: Shut up! (Vikings stop) Bloody Vikings! You can't have egg bacon spam and sausage without the spam.
Wife (shrieks): I don't like spam!
Man : Sshh, dear, don't cause a fuss. I'll have your spam. I love it. I'm having spam spam spam spam spam spam spam baked beans spam spam spam and spam!
Vikings (singing): Spam spam spam spam. Lovely spam! Wonderful spam!
Waitress: Shut up!! Baked beans are off.
Man : Well could I have her spam instead of the baked beans then?
Waitress: You mean spam spam spam spam spam spam... (but it is too late and the Vikings drown her words)
Vikings (singing elaborately): Spam spam spam spam. Lovely spam! Wonderful spam! Spam spa-a-a-a-a-am spam spa-a-a-a-a-am spam. Lovely spam! Lovely spam! Lovely spam! Lovely spam! Lovely spam! Spam spam spam spam!

In short, it's an anti-spam device.

...and it's not at all, new.
Posted by: Nfested
Oh it's not? I just noticed today though, guess I am slow.
Does anyone actually spam on OTS?
Posted by: Kdr Kane
They would if they could.
I'm fine with the timer.

I have seen too many people spamming on the OTS channel on b.net, but I have never seen any forums being spammed with blank or inane posts.
Posted by: Swilo
It's happened once or twice here before. I think it should be halved like on TG to 30 seconds.
Posted by: Spider
What was that one guys name, that came on the forums, spammed and said something about offering to stop and show you the hole he was using if you'd pay him? SkA ended up buddying up with him.
lol.

here ya go
Wargy will be pissed off if he sees this hehee
Posted by: philmcneal
i say make it 30 seconds or 40..
Posted by: DemonBob
I remeber when the forums were spamed majorly by one guy a year ago. It was intertainging watching him post 300 post in a min, and watching laggy shut him out every time he did it. lol

You spam quite enough WITH the 60 second filter. 
It stays.

LMFAO!!!
Posted by: Canis Lupus
I haven't found a valid reason to shorten the timer, yet ... hence, it stays
Posted by: AltronHGX
I like the timer.
One time I was trying to edit a post and clicked "quote" by accident and luckilly the timer thing gave me the message hence saving me the embarrassment
Posted by: Nfested
Ha! I did that twice already. I had to go back and reedit.
