"Just as the wave cannot exist for itself, but is ever a part of the heaving surface of the ocean, so must I never live my life for itself, but always in the experience which is going on around me.” - Albert Schweitzer

I was sending out a few messages the other day, when I realized that I was not getting the 'Please wait 30 seconds...' message as often as I did in the past.

So, I just tried sending two messages within (4-5) seconds, and to my surprise, they both sent immediately. I did not have to wait 30 seconds before sending the second message.

I suppose what I am trying to say is that you no longer have to wait 30 seconds in between messages. Personally, I think that is pretty cool.

What do you think? Do you think they should bring back having to wait 30 seconds in between messages, or do you like how it is now?

Edit: It seems you only have to wait 10 seconds in between private messages.

:)

Yay... I can be asked to join groups about how awesome that grunt easter egg on Halo in Halo 3 was even more often... or something obscure like that...

Nice find and good to know :)

Thank you. I thought it was pretty neat, as well.

It's on and off. For example, go to my profile, then click send message. PM me twice, really fast. You should get it.

The tide is turning, brothers! Let us take our kingdom back!

There was a limiter?

Huh. I've never had to send more than two messages in thirty seconds.
