Yeah, man, I gotta do one more, just one more, I'm cool, I can quit after any sentence, you know - but c'mon, just a small post, ok? Not even a sentence, just a phrase and an emoticon or two, just to get me through the night - yeah, I'm attending the PAA meetings (Posting Addicts Anonymous), but c'mon, just a little post - a smiley. All I need's a smiley - or two - or the dancing banana - yeah, just the dancing banana and I'll log off -- I promise....

I was going to start a thread about this but it seems one has already started. I am also annoyed with the time delay, even more annoyed that I can't edit my OWN POSTS! I'm not double posting, just editing an existing post which irks me because if I misspelled a word or two I have to let it sit there and have people look at it untill I can fix it.
On another note I think the delay is too long, I can post, then find another thread, read through the thread and want to post another comment but have to wait. I think that's too long, if someone is abusing the rules just warn them, don't change the whole system for a couple nits. At least that's my policy.

What is stopping you?
The Three Laws of Robotics:
1. A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

Perhaps I'm not remembering correctly, but I think I remember reading somewhere here that this is just a glitch on the .net site and that it will disappear once we are up and running on .com again. So it's a temporary thing, and we shall be rewarded for our patience once beta.com has been restored to its rightful place in the universe. (or something like that! )

Once more? You seem uncertain. I am surprised to hear that you are not remembering correctly but I think I remember reading somewhere here that this is just a glitch on the dot net site and that it will disappear once we are up and running on dot com.

Shell-bell, Magician implemented the time out to prevent people from double posting.
Maybe 1 minute? or 90 seconds?
I like to open several threads and prep my comments, then post them all
at once, rapid fire style. Sometimes I prefer doing that because it feels
like I've spent an appropriate amount of time proof-reading my posts. But
I can't do that when there's a time limit between posts.
I think two minutes is still too longmagician wrote:I've bumped it down to 2 minutes. We'll see how that works for a while...

I'm with ya on the Cloud recommendation... he seems to be stalking my comments lately!
And I don't know where I came up with the "temporary .net glitch" hypothesis, toni! haha! Maybe wishful thinking!! I have been oh-so-patient with it because I just kept thinking, "if I hold on until we go back to .com, alllll will be well!" hee! Now I'm just irked cuz I HATE that "can't post again yet" thingy too!!!! I have to correct typos and phrasing a lot, and the delay bugs me. A Lot. (See... now you guys made me a grouch! I was happy with my little rose-colored glasses on! )
So add me to the list of "pleeeease, Magician... can we cut the time back on the double-posty thingy? Pretty please with sugar on top??" *begbegbeg*
