It didn't stop it, it just quarantined it into the newb section. It had its positives and negatives but it was probably driving more people away.

Yes, newbs were restricted to posting only in Beginners & Help for a few posts/hours. It annoyed most newbs.

well the only good things is that it help reduce the number of newbie begging for loan with no collateral, or should i say, some fools that keep trying to make new account and tried to get a loan

Time limit is there for Jr. Members too.

basically all rank got a time limit, the higher your activity is the lower the time limit is, so at higher activity you will probably got a 1 seconds time limit, so it is like we dont have a time limit

It'll go down to 75 seconds once you get 15 activity. You'll have to wait for the next activity period which is next Tuesday for that though.

Hmm..never noticed this. Thanx for pointing it out. Guess they do it to discourage spamming?

No, its created to irritate people so that they take out their rage on pets :]
TBH i didnt even know there is such thing as a time limit, but it sure does make sence, because there would be constant spaming from new accounts.

Chill down, when u get higher rank, that will be a thing of the past.

Exactly. Often times by the time someone is a member, chances are they aren't here to spam.

you won't notice the timer once you reach 15 activity.

If going to happens at most in 2 weeks if you post at least 15 times. For you I think it will be by feb, 17

When you're a jr member it will decrease.

When you're a member it's gone.
Wrong, when you reach a member, the wait time will be reduced significantly, I don't really notice it since I lost slowly. It should be unnoticeable but if you post, login, pm or report post then do any of the actions again very quickly, the warning will appear.

Oh sorry,

I didn't have that problem, I don't post often and quickly.

SWEET mother of god it's so annoying. And of course when I try to post after that it says I already posted. So, I have copy... go back... reply.. paste...

I HAVE TO COPY AND PASTE ALL DAY FOR MY JOB IF I HAVE TO SEE THE COPY OR PASTE FUNCTION ONE MORE TIME I SWEAR TO GOD I WILL TAKE IT OUT ON MY CAT. He is sleeping peacfully on my desk. He is. There is BOTH a cup of water right and a vacuum right here...



Once your activity count go up, your wait time will decrease. Theymos put an explanation on one of his posts:
Code:
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);
However, if you need to recover the post You wrote but you cannot post, you have to simply got to draft and recover it from there.

Surf around the forum for 6-7 minutes and come back to post, the limit should have lifted. The reason being the system can't detect you being active if you dont send some requests to the server. The limit will decrease as your activity rises. When you reach member, the time would be roughly the amount of time you would take to construct a constructive post.

My online time is 4+ hrs and have 23 posts.

Perhaps it's because I am not clicking around enough.... but sure seems like I've spent about an hour just now reading and trolling over at the Gambling section. Made $11 bucks in fact.

Thanks for the info tho! I will be patient.

I even had time to 15 hours, only made 25 posts per day.

always late getting in thread giveaway games and rounds
