If I wanted your opinion I would have fucking asked for it.

Really? If you didn't want his/mine/everyone's opinion why did you post on a public forum? If you don't want anyone to respond to you, write it in a journal and keep it in your sock drawer. Which coincidentally would fix that 60 second wait problem for you too.

The time limit is an anti-spam measure that prevents ad-spammers from posting dozens of crap posts in just a few seconds. All forums I'm a member of have one, and those who don't install one after the first 100-posts-in-five-seconds spam attack.

May I recommend using the chat if you're looking for real-time conversation.

It is slightly annoying, but I can see the reasons for it and at the end of the day its only 60 seconds.

I'm not whining at all, all I did was make a perfectly sensible suggestion.

Unfortunately, as per usual, a few immature fuckwits felt the need to reply with immature and rude posts.

You know it's quite funny thinking about how often you little bitches have complain about me, when you're the ones posting cihldish crap all the time. It's also quite funny how the only people I have ever had a problem with on here have been seppos.

You're really the only one who's rude here.

Hewitson probably calls the people who tell him to shush in a movie theater for talking out loud to himself "rude cunts" as well.

I believe 60 seconds is a bit too much. I didnt know it also applied to forum posts either. But it could be brought down to 30secs as far as PM's go. 60 is a bit too much IMO if you got to reply to 3-4 pm's like Sammy said

Gee it'd be absolutely impossible to write a script which waited 60 seconds before sending the next one, wouldn't it dickhead??

Soilwork why don't you fuck off and go & do what you do best (sucking cock). If I wanted your opinion I would have fucking asked for it.

AKA Motion DENIED. The way TonK did it would probably be the best way if you have mass tracking numbers and thanks to send out.

This is one of those things that are painful to the "good" members and absolutely mandatory for the knuckleheads.

I mean... can you imagine the damage that twat Supasaru could do? I hear he types like 115wpm on a bad day....

Dude, I am absolutely NOT one to harsh on others on this website.

But your post is the essence of 'irony.'

It's totally understandable to be irritated about something. And internet forums exist, partly, to complain about things that bug you.

But taking the higher road will serve you well, whether you are actually being attacked by others or not. As it is, you've fairly buried yourself in this thread by using profane insults such as 'immature fuckwits' and 'little bitches' to describe other people you feel were unfairly maligning you. Acting in the same way you believe others are treating you is a one way trip down Hypocrite Alley. Just pointing it out.

I had to look up what the term 'seppos' means.
Wow.
seppo = septic tank = Yank.
Clever.

Other than smkdan, has there ever been ONE member from Australia that hasn't been either totally insane or incredibly unlikeable?

Australian born; Japan living

that seppo term makes no sense

i mean, Australia was literally a dumping ground for unwanted human specimens so that's a pretty big pot kettle black thing right there

I THINK calling someone a seppo is the equivalent of describing someone as though they're perpetually full of shit.

Maybe.

Thats exactly what it means,it goes back to the days of WW2 and the British were the first ones to use it.....probably as a counter for the term "limey" which was short for lime sucker and used by the yanks to describe the British accent as well as British people in general.

It's not about the real time response but more about if I have to respond to 10+ PMs I have a waiting time of 10 minutes total when I should be able to bang them out faster. If we need to do captchas that's fine with me, beats waiting a minute.

Captchas suck. Like wes posted earlier, if you really need to bang out rapid fire responses, use an email account.

I never really thought about this, but I edited the options and now there's only a 30 second floodcheck on PMs.
