What I mean by automatic posting is...
if you get the 60 second rule (or 180), and you have to wait, you can set it so that it will post automatically when the 60 or 180 seconds are over.

There should also be a way to turn this on and off.

How does this idea sound?

I'm not really sure how do-able this would be but if it is possible then it would be cool.

Good I guess. Maybe you click a button or check a (temporary) checkmark if you want to autopost?

It could use something from Scimonster's "Wait __ more seconds") thing, and then isn't there a code that automatically presses a button?

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, but it would be in profile smile

I script already popped into my head.

I support.

Agg725 · 2012-08-14 16:27:31

Sounds good to me. I support!!!

You can also make a browser extension that does it. Just use the setTimeout function in JS.

I guess that would be good, but sometimes you might want to not do it for one or two posts, without going back to profile.

Also, there should be a cancel post and edit in-case you get outposted.

Mokat · 2012-08-14 17:43:17

there would be a way to turn it off though

ImagineIt · 2012-08-15 10:55:20

I'd rather have a timer than that.

Not me, because what if you went to do something, and you forgot to post hmm

benjamin2 · 2012-08-15 14:29:07

Support, but it would spoil a lot of TBGs

Or maybe have a notice that the post was auto-posted at time [X]?

It could be abused, so that spam comes exactly every 60 seconds until a mod cleans it up.

Don't support.

A spammer could then just queue up a bunch of posts and walk away.

Limit a max queue length of 1.

Bookmark this JavaScript code, then click it when you get the 60 second rule:

Code:

javascript:function%20foo()%20{document.post.submit.click();window.close();%20}%20a%20=%20setTimeout(foo,60000);%20alert("This%20will%20post%20and%20close%20after%2060%20seconds");
