360 Rule on TBG Forums

On the TBG Forums, I have to wait 600 seconds. I think that should be changed to 360, unless there's a specific reason it's 600.

Re: 360 Rule on TBG Forums

Why is the post rule different, anyhow?

Re: 360 Rule on TBG Forums

It's a result of the "New Scratcher" rule. The Community Moderators don't have a posting limit, whereas most Scratchers only have to wait sixty seconds. Be thankful, however: it used to be a thousand seconds. The purpose of the rule was to prevent spam of either commercial or inappropriate nature.

Here, you can read up on the New Scratcher rule, if you'd like.

Re: 360 Rule on TBG Forums

I already read about that. I'm just wondering why it's 360 seconds here and 600 there. Unless there's a reason that it's 600 on the TBG Forums, I think it should be 360 there too.

Grr, the TBG is always updated later than the main forums.  sad

Hmph enjoy your fall - I get a lovely spring... without pans of new leaves.

Re: 360 Rule on TBG Forums

The TBG forums have different moderators than the main forums, so they probably just forgot to make it consistent with the main forum.

But yeah, they should really fix that.


I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.
