I get "you can only post a message 30 seconds apart" message all the time

[Sirotnikov]

And that even thoguh my previous post was often 20 minutes before.

Furthermore, the funny thing is, even though I get to the spam page, my post actually registers and appears in the thread.

Hmmm... hasn't happened to me at all... Anybody else having this problem?

Damn', so our ploy wasn't completely succesfull...

Blame Skanky heavy traffic , 'Poly's veeeeeeeery slow tonight, might have something to do with it.

[Gramphos]

I remember that sush things could happen with the time wraps if you did a post right before the time wrap, got initiated you couldn't post until the time had passed 30 seconds after that time. But I've not heard of any timewraps since Settler I got born... So this must be sometinh else...

Oh, wat I see. your posts gets into the thread... Then it might be a problem with your browser double posting.. And you should get that error...

[DrSpike]

A new one on me. The only time I've seen that message is when I edit a post and post another too quickly afterwards.

I would bet on the double posting.
One other possiblity would be that it's checking the time on the cache when it's gets busy and it's not updating as quickly. But if it was that, I'd think many others would have reported similar instances. So I'm betting on some type of double post. (which would also explain why the initial post is going through)

[Japher]

I have been getting the problem too, but only when I use the quick reply...

Maybe it means you can't post within 30 seconds after your army killed an innocent Palestinian

For the record, Rah's explanation sounds right. I have had that happen to me before when Poly was in a heavy-traffic phase. At least I didn't end up with a double-post.

Yeah, nothing worse than a +2.
