Well with this measures in place we hope that it never will.

Sorry, I don't read this forum very often . . . the intention was to have only newly registered users to have a posting limit. Most users should be able to ignore the flood limit, but it looks like I didn't configure it correctly. I'll test it out more...

OK, it should be set up correctly now. PHPBB has some screwy permission setups (just setting group permissions would be too easy; I had to change all the forum permissions too)...

Only new users (< 10 posts) will have a flood limit (now just 5 minutes). Everyone else ignores it.
