Why is this a thing?

[The Untainted One 452]

I'm not sure if it's just me that gets this but whenever I search a member group I get blocked from looking again for 5/8 seconds. Not really bashing it if it's to stop something being abused but would just like a clarification. (Happens on both PC and mobile)

This has never occurred to me but have you tried turning it off and on?

Also happy birthday man, hope you have a great day with your friends and family!

Because there's no way any real human could read the information on the page and query some more within 10 seconds.

So when I'm checking up on the admin team that has 2 smod, 1 admin, 1 head admin and 1 owner I can't check the names in each group in less than 10 seconds? I even get through the mods faster than the delay.

Thought Mintlou was being sarcastic to be honest, guess that just me??  If you want to view the current staff team theirs an easier way...

Click on "Browse" then "Staff" as it will bring you to this page Here Which lists the whole Admin team

 

But to your question "Why is this a thing?" its part of the Search flood control as searching can use a lot of server resources so there is a timed limit (Depending on what rank you are) @Veng3nce

Can't ever take Mintlou as sarcastic, always take what he says 100% serious.

I had a feeling it would be something like that, thanks for the explanation.

If something could be done about this then that would be great.

This is the most Skeff comment I have ever seen in my LIFE

Yeah it was sarcasm. It annoys the fuck out of super intelligent humans like myself. Apply a shadow group called "Fucking brilliant people" and set their query time to 1 second.

 

Cheers.
