Maybe I'm dumb and I'm missing something, but I just tried to edit a post I just wrote and I got:

DELAY!

You must wait 20 seconds between posting to avoid spammers..yada yada yada

48 seconds remaining...


Umm, If I have to wait 20 seconds? then how do I have 48 seconds remaining before I can post again? Am I missing something?

Or is it like a time out because it thinks I'm trying to spam so I got sent to the corner for a minute?

testing it again (actually for the first time...)


ok it said "9 seconds remaining" when i spammed this one.. i don't know about 48 seconds... unless you triple-posted and got a 60-second delay as a result? ^^

Lol. No I just posted something, I read it over and realized I made a spelling mistake so I edited it and hit edit post and I got that prompt. And It was 48 because I kept hitting edit post and it was counting down from 48 so I'm sure I didn't see it wrong.

Heh. I read about this glitch in the feedback forum. Fairly common.

It's clear to see that the system doesn't like you.

That's ok, though. We do. That's what really matters.
