2 MINUTES!!! ????

How the heck do you expect us to discuss things when we have to wait 2 minutes between posting on each thread?

I understand delays, I accept that delays are used to prevent spammers but come on - 2 minutes? That's way too excessive.
 

Changed to 1 minute. Can you really go to another thread and post new *useful* reply in 2 minutes?
I check your old posts and minimum time between posts was 3-4 minutes.
 

Yes, when viewing a list of new posts - opening each thread in a new tab is common, then going to the last post and making a reply is very easily done within a couple of minutes especially when the reply is not a long one.
You dont have to read the whole thread to be able to remember it - especially if you have posted in it before.
Visiting the forums, reading the posts that your interested in and sending some replies can take only a few minutes.

Why 1 minute though? many other forums keep it to something like 10-15 seconds.
 

There was 30 seconds two months ago, but this was default time for this forum engine and some spammers are prepared for this time.
In my opinion 1 minute is good time. I can write script and select from database what was the minimum time between useful replies and I'm sure nobody was faster than 1 minute.
