I realize that you are a machine, but making posts in less than 4 seconds makes you almost super machine.  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy
It's barely a problem while making normal posts. That only happens when I create multiple posts, and then click "send" to post them all. That's a limitation I can live with.

I hit this (often) while reporting spam. On loyce.club/badposts/spam.html, I click "report" with my middle mouse button (to open them in a new tab), then go through the tabs to report them.

So the problem is the post delay is also used as a Report delay. Merit doesn't have that delay, I can Merit 4 posts within the same second (and I've done that many times, but never reached 5). I'd like to have "unlimited reporting".

I understand. Doing it this way kind of makes 4 seconds seem like a long time.

But, honestly, I believe that this limitation goes beyond the simple user level. At lower levels, I believe this could be a feature used to minimize spam and the like. Afterwards, the limitation becomes aimed at controlling the flow on the server and avoiding underloads.

Honestly, I don't remember any forum - and I've been to several, some as moderator, and there are no time limitations between posts. There is always some limit. And the limit cannot be 1 second, because that is not a limit.  Roll Eyes
