i'm subscribed to no less than 10 different forums
this is by far the worst when it comes to all the rules and regulations
the 6 minute waiting period is also very annoying
and no it doesn't stop spam
because spammers can also wait 6 minutes Smiley

It might not stop them, but it at least slows them down / makes things difficult. It's more to stop ddos attacks.

Well the more you post the more this will go down.

The biggest annoyances here have to be the scammers.

They are entertaining though. Plus, they're easy to spot and troll.

Man I was about to make a thread saying this, of course I figured its already done. (Probably hundreds of times)

You know its gets worse. After sitting there for 360 seconds intervals.... - "You have exceeded the limit of 5 personal messages per hour."

Bad for you  Shocked

Yeah, especially when your ISP has a blanket proxy and it's not even me doing the posting! Sad

Annoying? Absolutely
But it helps reduce spam, and I can just wait 6 mins. Smiley

I hated this rule when I had to rewrite my post...
But now I dont see this time error anymore, so it seems things have improved

That's because you are a full member now Tongue

Just stumbled upon this site today, have not found anything about it that is annoying thus far.

I agree

I agree, the 360 seconds was very frustrating when i first got here. Especially when you're in a PM conversation with someone. I never really understood this restriction.
Maybe the mods can reconsider it?

I understand this can prevent spam. But 360 second is really long!!

I agree. 2 minutes or so would be much more reasonable.

we just went through a cycle 2 days ago.. so you will have to wait for 12 days from now on. i'm glad i got out only 4 days after registering.. the 360 second rule sucked, but i understand why it was there.

This goes away after about 20 posts or so, I believe.

The time limit will be down to about one minute after getting 15 activity.
