ok, we already have it so you can only post once every so often.

so, is it possible to make it so no one is able to post twice in a row.
if we add that feature onto the boards, then people will need to edit their posts, instead of double posting. THUS, lessening the spam, and double/triple/quadruple posts.


EX:


post #4
*username A*
i think we should do something. but im not sure what

what do ya think of my idea??


that, is somewhat of spamming. putting 3 posts next to each other, with very little text, and nothing more.... but, if my idea is implemented (no double posts), then it would look something like this

It's a pretty good idea. Most people don't like the 60 second rule but don't take the time to just go in & edit their posts & just wait around for 60 seconds to repost an add-on thought. I don't know what it would take to implement something like this or even if it's plausible to do it. All that stuff would have to be taken care of or looked into by the admins I suppose.

I wouldn't mind the double posts so much if we could view the posts using the "old" format -- where the poster's name/avatar/location were located TO THE LEFT of each message. It was a lot less scrolling back then.

EDIT: And of course, smaller signatures would help with that scrolling problem too! There IS that "500 x 200 pixels" guideline...not that I'm mentioning anyone by name...
