Sextus Roscius Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 (edited) I was wondering why of late flood control has stoped me from posting to topics several times. I didn't beleive we had a flooding problem with too many posts, we never have. Honestly, can some one give me a good explaination for the flood control? Perhaps we could lower the time inbetween posts. Edited November 30, 2005 by Sextus Roscius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Germanicus Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 I've only ever had the flood control message when doing a search, never when posting.....thats me anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viggen Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 It always was set on 120 seconds, since the day we started, because thats the default setting and we havent changed anything since then... regards viggen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost_Warrior Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 120?? I thought it was like...thirty...geez. On my forum its 15 seconds I believe...I've encountered it a few times, but I don't post that much it was more of a problem when I tried to edit a post because of mistakes in it.

Ursus Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 If you peruse the "Tartarus" folder you may notice a decided increase in the number of troll posts that are sent there. As a moderator I believe flood control is a good thing, especially with the influx of sometimes questionable people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for a little off topic side step but I did just go over to Tartarus and saw a completely random & ridiculous reply to one of my posts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primus Pilus Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 Sorry for a little off topic side step but I did just go over to Tartarus and saw a completely random & ridiculous reply to one of my posts Indeed, Ursus is enthusiastic enough to take the time to actually cut out useless posts from threads and send them to Tartarus rather than just deleting them. Thanks to that we can all get a chuckle from some of this stuff. As for the flood control... I could've sworn that we went over this before and had it down to 30 seconds. I know that since we started this forum, I've only had to wait to post perhaps once or twice, and these were because of trying to edit immediately after posting. I think it may have reset to the default when we upgraded the forum version. I'll see if I can find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princeps Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 (edited) Yes, I posted that original thread requesting for it to be toned down. It was around 60 seconds I think, and one of the admin kindly lowered it (or maybe even axed it). I dislike flood control, it is an annoying feature that adversley effects all users by wasting their time.

Viggen Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 ah, forum upgrade could have set it back to standard, in any case i leave it that way... ...but i set it that so that Patricians and Equestrians no longer have flood control at all... regards viggen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLavius Valerius Constantinus Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 Darn...I don't mind flood control at all really, it only seems like 15 seconds to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viggen Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 Darn...I don't mind flood control at all really, it only seems like 15 seconds to me. Looking at your output rate lately, it is no problem at all to set your personal flood control to 1000 seconds... cheers viggen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursus Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 ...but i set it that so that Patricians and Equestrians no longer have flood control at all... An excellent compromise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLavius Valerius Constantinus Posted December 1, 2005 Report Share Posted December 1, 2005 This may be random, but as of a few moments(minutes) ago, there seems to be a huge flux of guest. Today I've seen the number of guests around 50+, amazing. How much people can UNRV support anyways? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viggen Posted December 1, 2005 Report Share Posted December 1, 2005 How much people can UNRV support anyways? Our server should be able to support allot more visitors then what we have right now, i would say about 500 user at a time shouldnt be a big deal to handle... cheers viggen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
