I noticed that too today. I also will say its a big pain!

Sometimes you dont find what youre looking for during your first search, and having to wait a minute and half to do another search is the biggest pain in the butt.

Thumbs down

I understand a flood control on posts but on searches! Especially when they try to motivate people to search instead of reposting.

Now I am just waiting for someone to say...try a search first...I mean sure, I have 15 minutes to search....

Exactly are you guys looking for by limiting the search to 90 seconds?

Repeated intensive searches bog the database down, which slows the board down.

It is not like we have things like that in place for kicks, it is there for a reason. Complaining will do nothing to help it. It is a necessary evil.

Did ANYONE read Chris' post??
