ZP Has made me mad! - November 12th, 2002, 05:51 PM

1. the new 240 between posts. I get on my comp. connect>openklsv&2 internet exp. Thats 3 browsers! Now i get all of them ready to post in a diff. topic and when i post'Sorry you can only post once every 240 sec.'!!!!!!!!!! Then i hit back and my message is erased! It used to be 60 sec.

2. The shrunken 15000 byte limit! i wanted to post the ZP skin , but NO. it used to be 50000 bytes whats up with that ZP?!

I still love ZP but admin, please do something about this.

There is nothing we can do about it! Maybe the 240 second rule will stop people like 12345678910 Spaming the fourms. But if it doesn't work they should get rid of it. Also I do hate pressing back then finding my post deleted THAT SUCKS!

I think that it is good...but, - November 12th, 2002, 06:15 PM

It is good that there is a little more time inbetween posts... recently several noobs have been flooding the board with spam, but there still are some people that pollute the board with senseless posts and threads about things that people just don't care about.

I find that many people post numerous polls about the same thing and are quite self-serving. Also, I find that many people don't look at the past polls when they post a new thread.

This is a good method (in the short term) for weeding out those that are making insubstantial posts. For example, what was so imperative that you, Lennox1, must post within this 4 minute restriction?

Perhaps if you and others thought a little bit more between posts, the quality would be raised and these posts would feel far less like mental vomit.

How long does a usual post take for you? I usually take at least 3 minutes, and then reflect on my writing. If what I have written is innecessary (or too goddamned angry and flaming) I just don't post, and everybody wins.

With some people... I always feel like I am losing.

I agree with Wingnut. Keep the time limit and think before you post. The no limit or less of a limit invites lame posting. I do see the results working now.

Most people who come to ZP do not post, but read and learn or just entertain themselves reading the posts.

But when folks post quickly one after another , it is chat and is only interesting to the chatters. It will make Zeropaid ultimately lose it's position as a leading P2P portal and it's relevency.

Peace !

ok... do you pay for the bandwidth? no. do you contribute to the advancement of this site? no. so why do you feel that ZP is obligated to conform to your wishes? if you want somthing done your way, you have to do it yourself. then, maybe youll find out that the reasons for these decisions arent as radical as you might think.

:mellow mayby some of us do too many polls. Also some generalize groups too quickly. IE asBritish Fags. Or insulting 12345678910. We all have thoughts, and at times we all might turn a light on and have a good thought. just pause before you post, it is not a bad thing. chill.

I'm not British jerk off! The post that you made is why we have this problem. Why couldn't you send me a Private message and tell me that?

maybe some of the newbies would show up. They seems to like to chat alot. They like to flame and annoy people! Maybe the chat would have no rules,then the newbies would go there a flame each other and we can have peace on the boards!!

I really don't mind. I do have one question though because I haven't had to do this since the new rule has taken effect; does this minimum time apply to "editing" post you already made? Like submiting a post and then correcting it.

We were having WAY too much spam. We did this to lessen our spam and people were posting pornography. Yes, this does limit the freedoms everyone else has, but helps ensure your saftey. It's like the airports, ya, everyone has to leave earlier, but you're now safe. Or safer.

I totally agree with Wingnut and Rickio.....the 240 second limit doesn't bother me. But the file size limit bug's the hell outta me. Now I get why you guys do it and I'm not gonna bitch cuz your spending your time/money on keeping your server going. So I'll just break it down for Lennox1

Ok dude...they don't allow bigger files because they don't have that kinda space and or bandwidth to be letting you upload big ass pictures. If you wanna do that set up your own site or use your computer as a FTP and link to the pictures on them.

Seriously...think about it, how many ZP members are there? I know it's over 100,000 already.....

Pretty crazy if you think about it.

Edit: Ken....I don't think it applys to making edit's I just forgot to address that. It let me do it just fine.

GTA/123456789: If your gonna flame each other do it in a PM.....maybe you can go have some lovin' after you stop fightin 'n ah fussin'

Peace all, Later
