Consecutive post limit now 2 instead of 5

You talking about yourself in the third person againā€¦

Which renders the whole point of the forum redundant thenā€¦doesnā€™t it?

Why? Every forum in existence will have some sort of rule or terms that has been set by the owner of the forum

Personally I think it applies to certain realms that have few views which are then reflected in very few posts for a couple of days. When the last member who posted in most instances an image finds that he canā€™t post another comment due to the lack of interest in that realm.

It appears to apply to the whole lot (all realm pages and ALL posters therein).

The point of the forum (well one of the points of it) is to be able to express opinions but if the

Then ā€¦ I donā€™t think you need me to finish THAT sentence, do you?

David I appreciate that it is a blanket rule for all topics and posters. What I was trying to imply that the rule was initiated because certain realms have no traffic on the forum for a couple of days at a time when no member has posted then he is unable to make another post until something interesting happens and a discussion ensues.

No apparently itā€™s to do with so called ā€œspammersā€, those who post loads of pictures (and presumably posts in general), in succession. If I am not careful, I will be accused of the same thing so I am saying no more on this subjectā€¦

And you still canā€¦ the only thing that has changed is 5 consecutive posts to 2, VHTV has decided that the rule change will improve the forum in their opinion, no new rules have been set regarding opinions given on the forum

The gift that keeps on givingā€¦

I agree, it was a wonderful decision for VHTV to make. There has been a noticeable improvement to the forum since the change. Thank you again @VHTV_James! :hugs:

I trust youā€™re being sarcastic, but if not, what noticeable improvement has there been?

Iain your point is correct I thought so too ā€¦ about the Slow Realms
but if you can even still post 5 photos when no one else posts, the same thing will happen again

Except, you can post a lot more pictures than five single-pic posts, which means you probably wouldnā€™t need to use all five posts until you had new pictures to post.

It makes so much sense to edit your post after several hours and add some pics about a totally different activity/situation than the ones from the post youā€™re editingā€¦

Rather sad that a person who likes using the forum a lot can be referred to as a spammer i must say.
