Oh don’t get me wrong, I was just using my use-case as an example. I wasn’t trying to justify anything or reacting strictly to my own experience. I was simply saying that what happened to me is likely to also happen to others, including visitors of your install and mine. If your intend is purely to limit honest posters then I guess that the limitations served its purpose, but personally this would not be the reason I would use a feature like this.
I don’t see any reason why a user with good intentions should be limited in their postings, to me the issue of repetitive posting should be solved at it’s root, rather than try and limit its effects. However that was not the problem which I was trying to resolve when I created this topic, I was approaching this purely from an anti-spam perspective.
