AlanHo Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 I just got a message saying that 'Search flood control' was enabled. What is that?Am I searching too much? :lol:It's to stop any one person from "hogging" the board with searches or posts close together.If you wait for a short while the limit clears and you can carry on with what you were doing.It is a standard feature in many forums.

AlanHo Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 I have always experienced the flood control message - especially when I want to do several posts in quick succession. I am sure it is a feature of the Invision forum software and nothing to do with whatever Craig is doing presently.Sorry Irene - you must have been a slower worker in the past to be able to avoid the messages until recently.As andsome says - slow down dear - it's only a forum.

Chris Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 When you do a search, you are searching a database of information [what else eh?] which can be resource intensive depending on what criteria you have chosen to search with.So to stop the Intensiveness we enable flood control. Even if you do a 'simple search' we still enable it. Got to conserve those resources you see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irene Posted December 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 Got to conserve those resources you see. Certainly do, thanks Chris. :D So, I can now refute the myth that we slow down as we get older. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
