Suggestion Remove the wait timer

[Deleted member 92788]

I don't see a reason why should have them.
I'm talking about "This forum requires that you wait 10 seconds between searches. Please try again in 8 seconds." Example; I click on find latest posts and if I missclicked and went back to click on find latest started threads it gives me a 10 sec timer and I find that really annoying. Same with the search. Even if you don't want to remove them, nerf them?

Vote!

Ye but this is OtLand and 10 sec is still annoying.

the timer is there, to prevent bots used for attacking.

unnecessary to remove it imo.
timer gone=spammers/bot attacks.

Like other users said, removing that would lead to a possibility of bot attacks, besides 10 seconds is nothing

This. Massive amount of queries being executed simultaneously could lead into a DDoS attack. Intentional or not.

The reason we have timers on search is mainly because we wish to reduce/balance server load between the users to avoid lag.

(And/or the above reasons).
