well, it's not really post whoring if you just want to pop in and get all your replys done in 5 min. I mean, when I post in one thread and then want to reply in another, it's often less than 60 sec and I have to wait, it just sucks.

I was going to reply to this earlier, but my 60 seconds weren't up yet...

I think we could lose the 60 sec rule.

How about a 15 second rule instead. They do help eliminate alot of double posts, I'm sure. You know, some of those people still on dial-up.

With that, Because I'm waiting in the whole "you must wait 60 sec...." screen for that long, I've gone and finally got my post posted and there's already been 1-2 posts posted...I htink it creates more double-posts than if it wasn't there.

I meant, do you htink it'd be an ok thing to get rid of? I mean, you have the power to at least make it happen if it's possible don't you, being an admin?

Doesn't it also mean that you have a little leverage moreso than any of us to talk to Kyle and get him to change it?

The babysitter should have made sure you were asleep in bed at 1:00am not on Zdriver.com
I took care of him first thing this morning.

i cleaned up what i could. Some posts were deleted but not permanently removed, so i took care of those.
he sent me a very interesting and quite disturbing PM, which like everything else promptly got deleted.
some very perturbed ppl in this world.

he spammed the hell out of the place with nasty pics, like goatse, some naked 90 year old, and some guy, well, i dont even want to talk about that one, it was just WAY too disturbing *dry heaves*.

rizz, i noticed you were online at the time, when i sent all the PMs, but must not have been actively browsing the site. i got your and bleaches IM names, so hopefully i can get one of you sooner. i wonder if it might have been (banned member) back for revenge.

it really pisses me off... When I post something, there are often times i want to go back and change something, so I click edit, change it, and click post only to have it tell him I can't make another post that soon. Sorry if I type fast and don't want to wait all 60 seconds to fix a typo or to add a detail...
