im still on the fence

can someone explain how this stops someone from generating lots of PoS blocks 20 days in the future from a bunch of TX's with small interval, whether through one or multiple wallets

Code:

ss << nStakeModifier;
ss << nTimeBlockFrom << nTxPrevOffset << txPrev.nTime << prevout.n << nTimeTx;
hashProofOfStake = Hash(ss.begin(), ss.end());
if(CBigNum(hashProofOfStake) > bnCoinDayWeight * bnTargetPerCoinDay)
return false;

im not well enough versed with the code to know what these variable names imply

Pllllease somebody, this is important for every PoS coin out there.

ur not? ok.

Uhm, yeah I asked a question and as soon as members of this community answered it I said "thanks" and moved on. Sorry for pointing out a possible security flaw for PoS coins that somebody brought to my attention? I didn't continue to spread any FUD about the security flaw, I was pleased with the answer people from the community provided (why don't you provide those quotes?). There was another person on here earlier who was continually asking about a 'security flaw' without providing any specifics and who didn't stop asking even after people responded and that wasn't me.
