30 second search limit sucks

[blong]

I don't know if it's an easy change or not, but having to wait 30 seconds to run another search after your first search didn't get what you wanted is rather annoying.

I could be wrong but i think that its to prevent DNS attacks on forums. I see them on just about every forum i am a member of, so it must be a fairly common thing to have happen. A disgruntled member sets up a macro to search over and over killing the server. If there was no search limit, a few macros on one or two computers could probablly bring an unprotected server down pretty quick. It would at least slow the server down to an annoying degree..

it used to be 60 seconds i think... that sucked even more :)

true aaorn. Its better than it was before. Just make sure you search for the right thing. Its not that big of a deal. Better than our ish getting hacked and having nothing to read at all.
