    What is the deal with this lately? I have noticed it more often. When I log in and then hit todays post it reads you must wait 20 seconds. I know that 20 seconds have passed sometimes because I posted this morning and then went and got a cup of coffee. Fed the stupid cats and then came back in here and hit todays post and got you must wait... Heck as slow as I type there ought to be a 5 minute handicap gap in there anyway...:biggrin_2554: LOL

    There has to be some kind of glitch. I tried to respond to this and got 3 must waits. The last one was try again in 4 seconds. I waited and the next one was 20 seconds again.... it said go stand in corner you are not following TOS....:biggrin_2554::biggrin_25523: Seriously tho, it started me over on the countdown....:biggrin_25516:
    This forum requires that you wait 20 seconds between searches. Please try again in 20 seconds.

    No, the 20 second rule was ONLY for searching as if TOO many search too fast and all at once it can slow down a site, etc...the posting rule I think is 3 seconds...called flood control (because of spammers).

    One of the other sites that I belong to has a 30 second rule. And on the private messaging, I believe they have it set to 60 second. LOL

    Your being very reasonable, and this site is about 16 times the size of the other site. :yes2557:
