FLOOD PROTECTION..

Recently when you try to post a notice comes up saying flood protection please wait 60 seconds..well it even comes up early morning when their are maybe only 2 of us online..So how can it be flooded ??it even happens if you message anyone !!And whatever it is well its getting worse ??

 

Have to agree WF. Almost every post is blanked lately!

 

it happens also to me on a regular basis and its getting worse, there has been no one in pets corner and while i have been uploading my pictures it has been happening.
sometimes i have tried to post for 5 times this flood protection has come up its very annoying.

 

I found the flood protection came up if I was trying to do two posts one straight after another,like when we were chatting on wakey wakey in the old days...It was as if the computer or GC site couldn't keep up with the speed of posting,so would put up the flood protection to make us wait the 60 seconds before it allowed us to re post the message...

 

I also have it happen but I do post quickly sometimes, even with PMs. I'm not 100% sure it's to do with the overall GC scene but the individual.

 

Well its been hapening even if i havnt posted at all for hours..like when i get up early in the morning and come on here their is no one around and its still happening..Over this week it has got worse their must be a technical hitch somewhere..and its happening with all things ..pictures ..posts.. messages..

 

I have never had this problem,maybe It's that I'm not a prolific poster,but it does seem strange.....the plot thickens....

 

I get it a lot, very annoying!

 

I too get it a lot... is webmaster scaredy that we will take over..LOL

 

One problem I have had for a few weeks now is that I see that someone has posted when I look at the front list on the site,say the post that Dag has posted above,but when I come onto the thread there is just the last one which would be Roders post.I have to go back,then forward again,before I see the post.Even if I have a PM and go to look at it,is doesn't appear,so i have to go backwards then forwards before it shows it's self.It is most annoying,but I don't know what to do to put it right...I seem to be in some sort of time slip...So flooding for me would be a minor headache... :(

 

Thanks Nathan,but this is spooky because it now appears to have corrected it's self without me having to click on the 'refresh' button.I shall see how it goes... :D :D

 

Thanks nathan, I suppose now that you have explained the situation regarding trolls its a safeguard and will try and be a bit more patient when replying to posts.

 

Just came back to check and the problem was still there.Clicked on the 'refresh' icon and Rosa's post has shown it's self.So I seem to be cured now :D :D

 

I have had the flood protection sign come up even when i havnt posted for hours ..But i will monitor it and see if it keeps happening..I do think its got worse this week and i have lost posts through it happening and have had to do them all over again..Then again we dont want trolls so we may have to grin and bare it.. :eek:
