What I mean by post timer is how you have to wait thirty seconds, I think this is great but the fact that you must refresh the page if you are not able to post at that time is annoying, especially if you tab pages and then when you try and submit you don't know that you can't post and your post is simply deleted

About the Tabbed thing: Refresh.
It is kidna annoying, and it would be cool to make it appear automatically, but there are more important issues.
Well, the thing is, the 30 second time limit has more pros than cons, so it's not going anywhere. You'll just have to somehow cope. Maybe not have multiple tabs open about the armorgames forums?
I have seen the "30-second" feature on other forums. However, the submit button doesn't actually disappear.
If you click on it before the 30-seconds is up, a message pops up saying "Please wait 15 seconds to post" or something like that. Then, you can just wait 15 seconds and post!
I think that would be more effective than having to refresh the page until the submit button finally appears.
You don't actually have to wait 30 seconds. You can Copy what you typed, refresh the page, and then post it, and you only have to wait about 3 seconds while the page refreshes.
Yea it's not 30 seconds anyway. But I still don't thinkwe should have it. because well if u wanna be really active in the forums like i do now, because it's easier than playing games and writing reviews and much quicker. then I don't think the 30 sec thing helps your cause. So I think it's a bad thing. and why is the reason for it? no spamming? if people spam then warn them about it. next time momentarily ban them. then the next time like mute them. or ban them perm...
There are two suggestions in here I think are good:
I think it could be good that after 30 secs, the submit button will automatically appear, but I do not think it should be implanted just yet, we really need to work on other important things on AG like glitches.
And:
If you click on it before the 30-seconds is up, a message pops up saying "Please wait 15 seconds to post" or something like that. Then, you can just wait 15 seconds and post!
Both of these would solve the issue.
But. If you're dashing through the forums, having opened a few threads... And you post in one, then hop on to the next tab, read that thread, type a message, hit post... 30 seconds should have passed during your reading/typing.
idk. cuz i type relitively fast. and read fast (: but yea i just don't like it much. slows me down cause then i have to copy + paste it after i have refreshed the page
I did say I liked the ideas, right? It has annoyed me too at times. But mostly when I've opened tabs after posting, so I'd have to refresh before I could post because the button still said 30 seconds hadn't passed.
So I agree that a more "clever" way to have that working would be an improvement.

If you know 30 seconds haven't passed yet and that your post will thus be deleted, you can just wait some second before you post.
