I posted a reply to a thread, found another thread of interest and attempted to post a short but on topic reply to that thread and the second post was denied for trying to post two messages in too short a succession. How about a filter that stops people from posting two consecutive stupid posts in a row. That'll slow things down here in a hurry.

The problem with that is that you've already pressed the "enter post" button, so you have to refresh the screen and type your message again.
(Which can be a bit annoying.)

I don't have that problem. I just wait a few seconds and resubmit. To do that, select the "go back" option instead of "Close window". I suspect the original rule is to keep people from 'flooding' a topic. It's a pain in the ass sometimes but I suspect if the rule wasn't there, some idiot 'flooding' everything could be more of a pain.

After i type my reply, i change the font face, the font size, and sometimes the color. By then i have taken enough time that i don't have a problem.

I copy and paste. However I think this is more of a problem for those of us who learned how to type. People who have to look at the keys type too slowly to get this. If you type 80wpm you will get it frequently.

I can see not being allowed to enter multiple posts on a single thread back to back but not on different ones.

Some people walk miles with a bucket on their head just to have fresh water.

Hitting refresh, typing and/or waiting doesn't seem that bad by comparison really. :)

Without some flood control timer, automated forum spambots can have an annoying tendency to make forums move just a bit faster than you might want…

That reminded me about a NPR piece that took place in India - the villagers were hauling water yet the reporter had cell phone reception.

I think that's why it pisses me off. I type fast, and just want it to get posted, damnit!

Hit Ctrl-R, R (which is Retry, Resend). You will not lose your message in most browsers. You may have to hit the key combination more than once. Wait a few seconds and try again until it goes through.

Agrees with Hellion's light. I type very fast (thus the typos) and its sooooooo annoying when I can't post.

Thank you- have had that happen to me a lot, nice to know how to not have to retype.
