No Thanks PM time

when u PM someone then u have to wait a entire minute has been bugging da SH!T outa me some i'm just wondering if it could be like 15 sec. or 25 sec. summtin like dat :P

 

You can't find anything else to do in a minute's time?

 

..Wow. This is pathetic. Do you know howl ittle a minute is? Go post, or better yet, type more in your PM's so it isn't just a random one lined piece of sh*t PM that no one wants to see when checknig there PM's.

~LOCKED/DENIED/THINK OF SOMETHING GOOD~

 

Not sure if anyone suggested this yet

Can i suggest we cut the time in between PM's to 30 seconds instead of 1 minute, like Posting?

It gets in the way for me sometimes and i'm sure for others too...

 

That would be nice and I see nothing wrong with it.

I agree with it and think it's a good idea​

 

i don't think it would do any damage to the site whatsoever ^^

I looked in the list of "Rejected Suggestions" and i didn't see it... I searched it too but didn't find anything...

 

That seems like a good idea to me.

 

Yeah it is a bit annoying​

 

This would help speed up my convos with the people that I have no other way of contacting~ I dont see why there's such a long wait in the first place.

 

I don't see the point of having to wait between PMs at all.

 

I think it's a great idea. *votes*

 

It isn't a bad idea. The only reason it may be set to a minute if it can be changed here is because of the flooding potential which does bog down the board. It may be something that has to be in place but that would be the reason why. Too much action like that can slow the board down.

 

The 60 second waiting time's purpose is to prevent leechers and bots/advertisers from mass PMing, one after the other.

If anything it should be higher than 60 seconds, so in a way we're kind of lucky to have that.

I don't think we should lower it. I realize it would be better for us, since most of us (even me) PM a lot. But it has its other reasons as well.

 

That's something i can understand o:

Ahh, i see now...
But they can like send those up to 5 ppl at a time, so they shouldn't be able to do it individually.

 

Yes, but they do it twice as fast with a 30 second timer rather than a minute.

Do you see what I mean? lol

And like Repliku said, if it's twice as fast, it slows down the forum a little. Especially if many people are PMing in such a short period of time.

 

Yeah, really if you think about it, a minute to wait to send PMs is kind of a way to provide for our safety and not having to get lamer messages to droves of people in short amounts of time. The bots or someone being ornery could take more advantage of that so sometimes you just have to compromise so that the board is kept safe and free from those kinds of things.

 

Darkwatch and Repliku speak the truth. As for Crono's point, if the people can't seem to wait a mere sixty seconds, they should just go onto MSN or something.

 

yeah, but those who do not have msn usually talk through PM :3

Oh well, i tried ^^;

 

I really don't see the need, if you need to send another PM in less than 60 seconds and it's short enough that the time waiting hinders your plan, you seriously need to get IM's, since those just seem like a waste of space PM

a reply like "lol"

should be taken to a damn IM, if one of the two people don't have one, ffs get it, 21st centuary n'all.

 

Well if it slows down the forum then I guess not.

Also it's not my fault that I can't get IM. My sister got my computer infected with a virus and my dad cleaned off my computer and blocked AOL with a firewall. And IMVU is ghey.

I wouldn't want it anyway. Non of my friends use it because well since I go to a Christian school do I even have to say it...

I can live with 60 seconds ^_^
