But seriously. What is with this 5 minute delay. I think it should only be fore people that have played eve for less than six months would suffice. I would only think it would be in place for people who just opened an account and plan to spam the forums.
I can also see why they would want to stop 1 word posts because their economy is in the toilet. But frankly, we are paying them alot of money a month. If you think about it everyone pays for eve. If you play well enough you can get other people to pay for you. :D
Also I am pretty sure it does not matter now because the posts will be a hell of alot longer, thus taking more space. Points can be put across in one word posts and not just walls of text. Now people will be writing sentences, thus more space needed. You shot yourself in the foot CCP, like that cop on youtube saying he was all experienced.
- Just a piece of my ****ty mind.

Moved to Features and Ideas discussion.
The 5 minute timer is a necessary evil, much like basement cat.

ISK sellers have no moral issues with using hacked accounts to spam, thus, 5 minutes for everyone.

If you'd start to:
a) not make BS threads b) not reopen closed threads b) post in the relevant forum
you would have less locked and moved threads. CCP Zymurgist's job would be easier, as well.

At some point you will realize that you flaming the boards with this drivel doesn't really accomplish anything except making you look like a flaming idiot.
If that was your goal, then Mission Accomplished.
You can (please) stop posting now. --Vel

True that. Should be as easy to track as new threads in order to purge spammers and people would not pe tempted to klick as much.

5 Minute timers are for 1)Trolls 2)People that are going to get banned anyways 3)People that edit moderations 4)People that don't obey forum rules 5)People that makes mods work days longer 6)People that put smiles on mods' faces when they finally get to push the gag button, yarr (I guess it only lasts a little while, then it really gets mono) 7)People that post absolutely no logic "I can see why they want YOU to stop posting because your economy is down the toilet" (the sentence is logically equivalent to YOURS believe-it-or-not) and last but not least 6)It is for your protection so that you don't click on the wrong link and lose your frigates to an account hacker. Low logical perception puts you at a high risk - (you yourself said "****ty mind" - I didn't) thus you should be thankful (perfect logic - if you missed it).
But I guess your'e not really that much in need of the above "education" since you were just trolling - right?? hence you cannot be offended

Sadly, this only penalizes the people who actually use the forums. Penalizes the rest of us, not all of us are trolls, for the ongoing efforts by spammers.
Above was a good suggestion... why not 5 minutes to make a new thread and 1 minute between posting replies? That is unless you guys want to kill your own forums. That's where I see this going to be honest.
But, if you are going to set a 5 minute timer (Good God that's a damn long time!!) could you guys set a count down timer on the overall website ui? Mind you 5 minute timer is a damn long time and guestimating how long is bloody awkward.
Did I point out that a 5 minute timer is a long time?

In retrospect, I kind of like this. At the very least it will decrease the amount of trolling that does go on. Or, more correctly, just make it so that the trolls have to pace themselves and consolidate their bile. Still, 5 minutes is a damned long time.
BTW Did I say that 5 minutes was a long time?
