#771 Problem with flood control

I had all flood options turn off and the last week i started getting stupid message about flooding which i am not (i thought it was a bug) well after days of it i went to see if i mistaken turn it on it look like we cant turn it off anymore you used to 0 in the box and that would turn it off... is there another option to turn this stupid thing off my members & me are getting sick of it now

Sorry I believe the lowest you can now have it is 10 seconds.

Hello,

To complete the response team member Forumotion. It can not be less than 10 seconds. Currently an inquiry to the French support forum is open to offers of a problem of this anti flood control.

Sincerely Kaya.

Well I believe it was like that for every forum created within the last two or so years as I've always had it like this for my forum which is two years old. I guess the technicians might have done it for older forums as well.

if we dont get an option to turn this off i'm going leave forumotion!! it's really starting to pee me off

Is 10 seconds really impacting your forum this drastically? 

If you wish to leave FM then that is your choice.

You can suggest an option to disable it completely and the techs might implement it.

They added this option to prevent spammers to spam.

I have not encounter this issue on my forums.

1. Does this occur in every browser?
2. Who exactly is this happening to?
3. Are they using a mobile device, laptop, or desktop computer?
4. Are you saying that when you set the option in the administration panel, it changes?

Hello,

The problem of flood controle has been reported to our technicians.

Thanks

The flood control has been an issue on our forum for about a week now. It randomly comes and goes and the duration between each control varies. Often it's 5/10 seconds. This morning, I made a post, went to go make/eat breakfast, came back and was flood controlled even though it had been almost 15 minutes between posts.

I thought it didn't affect admins/mods (which everyone on my forum is), so it's very frustrating. This hadn't even been an issue until now. Frankly, I had no idea it even existed; it was that invisible. It's almost as if it's become a forced feature now and it's beyond frustrating, especially when our forum is just a dozen people who don't even need to worry about spammers or social bots.

At least offering the option to turn it off would be an enormous help. It'll still be there if people need it, but also give small forums the chance to ignore it all together.

Hello

The problem should be solved right now. Thanks for your feedbacks

It wouldn't let me post in Global access, so I guess I have to post this here.

 I  still am having problems with the flood fill in 2 forums. Could you please tell me what is going on ?
