Really annoying/disfunctional forum behavior

I love the software and I truly appreciate the forum availability, as we are doing custom things with Imagevue that would be difficult without the level of information the forum provides.

However, I have been running into forum restrictions, that make basic use extremely difficult and frustrating.

If I make a search and it returns no results or aren't quite the results I need, I am prohibited from making a search again. (It says I can't make one this soon after my previous one).

2) If I make a post and need to quickly go back in to edit something, I can't. It says it is too soon since my post again.

These are excessively aggravating and needlessly accomplishment prohibitive.
Please remove these for licensed users of your software.

Thank you,
John

Unfortunately this is forum restriction, can't do anything about it, not sure why they did it like this. But you can try site search or google search, google indexed our forum quite well.

This was implemented as a measure against spam, we got into some spam db and our forum was literally flooded with spam messages. Now with the addition of confirmation code it got better, so I just put it back to 15 seconds.

Sorry for inconvenience.
