Forum spam-timer. - iGetty - 12.05.2012

Hello, thank you for looking at this thread.

Who thinks that the SA-MP team should lower the post-spam timer for people to something like 30 seconds instead of 2 minutes?

My reason is that I like to help people in the script discussion section and it gets really annoying when I'm helping a couple of people at a time and they have to wait for two minutes to get a reply, it also annoys me because I'm stuck on helping people as I get 'this forum requires you to wait 120 seconds to post', it frustrates me why the team have a spam timer.

Even if the SA-MP team could set it so people over the rank of big clucker or huge clucker or whatever the name is to be something like a 30 second timer instead of 2 minutes? Or even the scripting duiscussion section to have only a 30 second wait timer?

Sorry for any mistakes, I'm posting this using my BlackBerry phone.

Thanks and I hope to have some replies!

Yea it should be lowered. when i am typing something helpful to a guy and sometimes i have to wait 2 minutes.by the time someone else posts the same thing before me.. and people say to me "why you post the same thing "

No, even moronic people can get a high post count easily, and 2 minutes is just perfect.

If someone posts before you, tough luck.

Just wait the damn minutes, the thread won't go anywhere.

unless it's braking rules and will get deleted.

It is much, but it's sure annoying. It wont change anyway, so this is useless.


Re: Forum spam-timer. - freddy smyth - 12.05.2012

How about for, say "Gangstas+", remove the timer. Anyway, I still have my doubts.


Re: Forum spam-timer. - InfinityCOD - 12.05.2012

I will 1+ Because I would like to help more But cos of the timer I can't!

The timer is fine like this, 2 minutes waiting allows you to see other threads, think about the reply or answer, save you from spamming and triple posting on the same thread.

Barely get the 2 min notice; post a reply, search for an other thread and take your damn time to actually write a decent reply.

It's great, really
