| I just got the same message, twice. Do we really have to wait 5 minutes between each posting? It's my bedtime and I don't want to have to stay up that late... Cheers Paul

| Applied the restriction to prevent the board filling up with irritating little messages split over several posts, apparently in attempts to boost their authors' star ratings. I'll lift it if those individuals will desist from spamming -- Steve [Later...] Aw, go on, I'll lift it anyway.

| Perhaps (if it's possible?) the restriction could still be applied to prevent repeat postings to the same thread within a time period, but not to prevent a member from posting to different threads within the same period (if you follow me). As a reformed "ratings spammer" I'd be happy to accept that Cheers Paul
