Unless you consider posts from experienced users SPAM, please disable it for users with x number of posts, it is extremely demotivating.

Thank you.

I don't like this flood control, but I think that they (had to) do this to prevent (more) database errors. I'm not defending the setup, because it would be great when this was possible. However, looking at the insane number of visitors at peak times... I don't think that this is going to happen. Still a pity of course

Hey guys

I share your pain about the flood control, it was f***ing annoying but a necessary evil at the time - we've disabled it for all members but not for users with less than 5 posts (as you suggested Beerkex'd) so hopefully this will work OK.

Sorry again for the inconvenience.

P.S. server hardware is much better now, DB errors are down to a very minimum and only occur if we really push the admin area on mass commands, and we're about to upgrade to even sicker hardware (quad-core Nehalem processors and SSD drives) so DB issues will firmly be history.

very good news!

Good;)

good news

Yes. It is really a good news. haha

What is this 'Flood Control', Is this why I cant create a topic?
