10 Seconds Between Searches

Is there a business reason to keep this? I often click on a New Topic, read the latest post, then am ready for the next. I hit the 10-second rule (no snickering about my sexual prowess) often.

Yes. Too many queries too frequently and the server goes BOOM.

As an alternative, instead of hitting New Posts or Today's Topics every time, you can hit the back button to go back to the list of threads that still have new posts you haven't read.

Re: 10 Seconds Between Searches

New posts bite anyway. I use today's posts and refresh about every 5 minutes or so.

10 seconds doesn't qualify as prowess.

Re: 10 Seconds Between Searches

No. But it would be very easy for someone that doesn't like us to keep clicking either of those buttons and bring it down. It'd be like a DOS attack.

Can you limit it to x number of searches w/ in the 10 sec rule?

I don't know of any "Post Whore" feature or option that will break one useless post into three even more useless posts.
