Flood control... ON SEARCH?

There's a 30-second flood control on searching. This could be annoying if you were to say misspell a search, and wait 30 seconds before making another one. Is there a reason for this, or can it be considered for changing?

Yeah, like the my...I mean the admin's evil plot to take over the worl- forums by poisoning all to coca-col- by limiting search control.
Er...yeah.
Whew! Almost told everyone about my evil plot to take over the world by poisoning all the Coca-Cola in the world. Got to be sure I don't slip up again....

That's exactly what happened to me, oh well, you just have to live with it :shrug:

Or complain untill you get banned. I never use it anyways so I really don't care either way, but it makes very little sence.

Damn subrosians are so violent....
Can't we all live in peace?
No?

This is gonna be a battle for RPR...I mean Forum Gamez.

Apparently, search counts ALL our posts, even the pruneds and FG ones. Nifty, eh? 😃

*believing search, has almost 5K*

How can the search count pruned posts? They don't really exist. Unless you just can't see them by viewing pages on the forum and they don't increase count.
