    Howdy,

    Something I mentioned before I think, can't remember what the outcome was (if indeed I did mention it) - can the timeframe for reducing the time reporting posts be reduced from 60 seconds to something shorter? Say, 30 seconds or something like that? Yes I'm coming up against the 60 second limit when reporting posts on unmentionables again.

    Thanks.

    Nark!

    Nah - I've come across this as well. Especially if I'm online during the Irish night. Doesn't really bother me too much.

    I thought this was going to be about limiting the time you can report a post e.g. if a thread got bumped and there was an abusive post 6 months ago. Should this be able to be reported? I believe this happened in After hours earlier on.

    I'd like to see the time limit for posting scrapped altogether for certain user groups e.g. mods and maybe subscribers.

    Good point. I shouldn't be penalised for having both a sharp wit and 27 fingers.

    It's probably tied to the general posting floodgate restriction because reporting a post is *essentially* making a post (mods will understand).

    I agree that it should be less restricted for certain usergroups.

    6 fingers on each hand, 6 toes on each foot and you're the chick from Total Recall?

    I second this motion. Or fourth it or whatever.
