    SUIT, et al., Please reduce the 60 sec. limit between PM sending

    can you reduce the 60 second minimum time between PM transmissions?

    If you are selling something and have 10PMs you want to respond to with quick answers, it really sucks to wait 60 seconds between transmissions.
    30 would be more reasonable and still defend against robots.

    If I wait more than 60 seconds for a response, as a rule, the deal is off

    why is this still not fixed?
    I gave you ten (10) YEARS to fix this!


    why am I the only one bothered? Its not like i PM ever. But when I do, i get damned impatient.

    I can search the entire database of posts multiple times per minute, but can't send a tweet size PM 59 seconds after the last?
    Its not likely that this is bogging the server down.

    Forgot all about this. We'll get this in front of the tech wizards for sure. Probably had its roots in fighting the spam you remember in those years.

    At least the search function is worth using again!
    Something about the wrinkle in your forehead tells me there's a fit about to get thrown
    And I never hear a single word you say when you tell me not to have my fun
    It's the same old shit that I ain't gonna take off anyone.
    and I never had a shortage of people tryin' to warn me about the dangers I pose to myself.

    Exactly. I forgot there used to be a delay on searches as well!

    thanks for making it happen.
    Been selling a few things lately, and logging in to return 10 pm's should not take ten minutes!

    are you getting an error message? I just sent two in ten seconds or so and went through fine.

    yeah, got the error message, and it said try in 45 seconds, took a few breaths and it said try again in 22 seconds, etc.

    maybe its just me? Or PM Syndrome

    It was last night, replying to 5 or 6 messages from gear swap

    I think I found the correct setting to change...lowered it to 10 seconds.

    Awesome! That'll make my life much easier in the next two weeks.


    Has there been a pm spam problem in the past?

    It was probably an issue before my time.
