Found another thing I want changed on the forum
April 20, 2022 at 8:29 pm
I think I've mentioned it before, but I believe it bears returning to for attention and a possible alteration.
Currently, only mods and admins can post twice in a row without having to wait an hour like a regular member.
Most of the time, because I have an active mind, I don't just have a thought once an hour. And if I attempt to post it right after having already posted something, it merely gets added to the previous post. This is an issue for the primary reason that the new thought and addition gets overlooked because people have already viewed the previous post. There's nothing but a line to indicate that anything new was added, and I've never gone back to a previously read post to see if anything new was added.
I believe the wait an hour before a new post appears one after another rule needs to be removed. I honestly see no reason for it.

I agree with you...for established members though.
We'll see what the consensus is.

There was a originally a good use for it. Mostly being some sort of race to the top that happened where certain people were just posting post after pointless post with no real content to try to raise their post count and it became a bit disruptive. It probably wouldn’t hurt to keep it for people in their first 90 days or whatever though

We also don't want spammers coming in and posting a bunch of stuff in rapid succession and then leaving. Right now they tend to make one and run. Often they are banned before they can make another post. That's why I suggested established members - like those over the 30/30 thing.

That makes sense, and I am onboard with that.
