WTF is this wait time shit, its annoying as fuck

this is the rule!!!

waittime = 360;
if(activity >= 15)
        waittime = (int)(90 - activity);
if(activity >= 60)
        waittime=(int)(34.7586 - (0.0793103 * activity));
if(activity >= 100)
        waittime = max((int)(14-(activity/50)), 4);

That's just to prevent spammers from ... well Spamming Shocked so people don't use BOTS to register and just post post post crap everywhere . like we see on other forums like mybb , etc.

It is a pain in the ass, but it reduces spam. And encourages us new users to read threads and post constructive posts.

This gave me a laugh.  Cheesy

I had exactly the same reaction back in the days when I was a newby.

360 seconds isn't that bad, use that time to read threads etc.

This annoyed me as well when I first joined but the time will lessen as you level up to the point you won't even notice it unless you are truly spamming the boards.

Preventing the spam? Get a few ranks up and you can post without time restrictions.

You still can do your first post in less than 360 seconds.

Be happy because in the past even login would reset your time counter

Why not ? it is just forum rule, this help reduce the spam .

Just keep posting till you reach 30 post and then the restriction will go.
