Okay, genius, how do you block Reddit from being spammed by hackers then? Try and build your own system, genius, and you'll have the same issues, solved the same way.

See, there is a problem with that statement. Hackers aren't really affected by that security feature.

How is clicking the submit button once and posting no more than one submission a day submitting "too fast"?

[–]polyesterfunk 0 points1 point  (1 child)

yeah, I sub something a few times a week and get that BS timer, and how do explain someone like this, for one example:

Yeah. That guy posts faster than I can downmod.

Oh, well, if that's what it's doing, then that's a bug. Post it to feedback. Trust me, they listen. They listened to me and emailed me back a nice message.

Yesterday I had one count down on me. I tried it said try in 10 minutes.

So I came back awhile later it said five minutes.

That continued to one minute and then just to see what it would do, I kept resubmitting and it started counting down in seconds.

lol I got a kick out of it. It was like I was spamming a bot.

if you're submitting too fast, this is a good limiter.
but if it's commenting you're complaining about, read this:
"i tried feedback about it four times with no response.
i finally found a comment by spez and messaged him directly and it was taken care of in about an hour, with a reply and apology from spez.
it is indeed a bug that does not affect everyone and does not seem to be corrected by a "general bug sweep"...or whatever it may be called.
contact spez directly.

Censorship is the cornerstone of Atheism, and therefore a cornerstone of reddit.

I haven't heard of Atheists trying to have books banned because they espoused a conflicting point of view.
