    I oppose flood control which is currently active on your site. I feel that most of us are mature and have good judgement so we don't need things like flood control. 60 seconds is fair, but this is not a chat room so there will be very few spontaneously created messages.

    Thanks for your input.

    Since removing that function may invite abuse at some point, I'm only willing to reduce this down to 30 seconds at this time. Hope you will find that reasonable enough. .

    30 seconds is very fair. I was going to suggest 45 seconds, but I knew you would make an appropriate decision. Thanks.

    30 is perfect in my opinion, I know sometimes I hit the 60 second flood control thing when I type 2 messages right after one another but by cutting that in half I don't think there is any way i could post 2 legitimate different posts (aka not flooding) and get in under 30 sec.

    Good call Alien.
