I have noticed a trend in irrelevant and numerous posts being put up by single users.  Should I implement some post flooding controls that will inhibit the number of posts allowed per user within a pre-deisgnated period of time?

Vote! 

I don't like either of the choices, because I'd say no, really. Not because it is fun but because I type VERY fast and can put out a ton of posts a minute if I wanted and none of them being annoying. But then again, that's just me. However, I voted yes, because post flooding with uselessposts isn't fun.

Is this implemented at me? If it is i am sorry because all i try do is reply to peoples convos and my replys are relivent to what they have put.
If you dont want me to post i can spend hours of my life not posting on the forums and not advertising the game on other things.

No one is being targeted specifically...I just want to be sure that everyone is having a pleasant experience in the forums.  In all honesty, I like seeing the community grow.  Keep doing what you are doing Scrattz, until the whole of the forums voices an overwhelming majority that desires certain limitations or modifications to be made in the forums...you are fine. 

There are many features in the forums that are not being used...one of which is the "Post Flood Control" that limits the number of posts allowed by individuals within a set period of time.  If it is a feature that no one cares about, then we will not use it.

Also, how do you like your rank graphic?  You are the only one with that many posts, so I had to make that just for you.  

Edit: Gah! You went up in rank again! 

Edit:Edit: Oops, that was my fault, I had the rank changeover number set too low...fixed now 

Like how long of a set of time? Becuase most of my posts are withing 2 minutes hten i dont post for another like 10 minutes when i refresh. I dislike waiting to post, but if theres a lot of post flooding i suppose its necessary.

oh noes is that 3000 to get bomb snail now? it was 1900+ before

It can be set to any time limit in minutes.  I would not set that limit to 10 minutes...it would prob just be 1-2 minute wait times if we activated it. 

Flood control is useful, so I voted yes... Regarding the time limit I'd say 30 sec to a minute...

While I'm not nearly as fast as typing "a ton of posts a minute" I could make 2-3... with relative usefulness of 70-80% lol :)

 Btw: Scrattz's new rank image is Cool!:)

well i dont know i type fast too and i could do a few posts in a min too ^^ but well i dont like if somone just says " lmao,lol,haha,yes" to get the rank up ^^ 

 There should be post control, 10-30 seconds seems like a good idea, best to prevent an angry player from spamming.

i agree with zyrex but i also think that if the post is just a copy of some eles's post then it should not count and if it is totally not relevant to the topic then it should not count or if it is like one word then it shouldn't count etheir

In my prospective a forum is a place where people should be posting somewhat long answers on varios discussions... Therefore I propose to add some sort of limit to the number of characters you enter... Looks like many people are trying to use the forums as a chat system, where one person adds half a sentence and waits for another to reply...

But that's just me... a flood control should do the trick for now

 Exactly!  Done <-- that's just an example :)) lol

Anyways, problem is that trying to incorporate such validations will make posting a little bit irritating...  In stead, may be they could implement a "shoutbox" or a chat channel that stays on all the time... It could be placed either on the left or right of the forum... What do you say??
