This makes discussions such as this have a negative ROI for an average commenter. Spamming scam and grift links still has a positive ROI, albeit a slightly smaller one.

I use a certain online forum which sometimes makes users wait 60 or 900 seconds before they can post. It has prevented me from making contributions multiple times.



I'm using one with a 5 in 14400 seconds timer right now. Ditto.
