60 second limitation on posting
I just ran into the 60 second post limitation, which requires consecutive posts from the same user be at least 60 seconds apart. While this makes sense in the public threads, would it be possible to turn it off in the Private Messages? I was responding to a bunch of PM's for a voucher I offered in the Coupon Connection, so I had several people to send a "sorry, but it's already claimed but I'll come back to you if they change their mind" message and kept getting held up.
I realize that's a pretty small use case, and I don't know if you can distinguish PM's from regular forum posts in the software, but removing or lowering the threshold for Private Messages would probably help someone out.
BTW, except for just playing around, I would never have figured out that "Quote" meant the reply function. (I understand the difference in Reply and Reply With Quote, but Quote doesn't imply to me to respond to the original user.) I'd suggest changing that button to be "Reply" or something else, just so others understand that better.
I tried doing a few searches to see if this had already come up, but I think the search engine blew up while I was trying. I was getting "unable to allocate memory" errors showing 75M already allocated to the search process.
