| FAQ - Limit of No More than 2 Posts in last 10 Sequential Posts
Posted: 7/7/2007 1:19:25 AM | Yes, it WOULD be a good idea, if the rule were actually applied consistently.
Check out the "Canada At War. With Who?" thread in the "Politics" section. Specifically, messages 92, 93, 94, 97,98,99,100,102.
Yeah. Great rule!!

Posted: 7/18/2007 12:54:40 AM | How come other people on same forum can repeatedly post ?
I cant post but 2 Xs
I can post on other forum /Thread and am happy I can !
I wanted to start a fun Thread for everyone and leave the other Thread
for a while !
I dont think I have did any thing wrong . The people that can
chat /post on other thread repeatedly it is just as explicit as the
one created and can't post on !
its as if form of discrimination or negative judgement towards
me is "taking place !
Was there something wrong with the Thread ? or does POF think
I have gone too far "posted too much in last Thread to
be a part of the new Thread ? Because of my last Thread having 121 pages
I know it is Outrageous ,but it has been interesting . I would think POF
would be Proud that we like coming here so much !

Longer posts are un-affected by the 2 in 10 filter.
This filter is designed to reduce needless chat in the forums. Therefore it won't affect substantial posts, but it will effect short posts.
These are meant to be discussion forums, not chat-rooms, and posts like the 2 below, don't really contribute to a discussion
oh this is Just to Hilarious
I love it ! Tell me more !! or
That is so funny " Thanks for sharing a wild & krazy moment in time | |

Posted: 7/22/2007 8:44:52 AM | | Well..I just tried to post to Bucs Girl to thank her for sharing her Long Dist relationship story in Dating Experiences and Long Distance, and it was my 3 post in the entire thread, and MORE than a paragraph, yet I am "not allowed" to post it. Have to wait for several more people to post....sheesh! Rather frustrating. (And cannot even email her to thank her.) ARRGH! | |

are you not able to email her?
The point of this filter was to limit forum chatting.
Posting just to thank another person for their post is an example of the type of chat which this filter was meant to prevent.
According to the forum posting guidelines:
Is your reply addressing the subject, and contributing to the discussion? or is it an exchange of off-topic comments between yourself and another poster.
Use POF E-mail for this. http://forums.plentyoffish.com/datingPosts1345738.aspx | |

Posted: 7/23/2007 12:29:38 AM | Yet, if you go in this Thread, you will see the OP had as many as 7 to 8 posts in a row, many of them are 1 to 2 lines only. She did the same thing on page 3 and 4 and 5 over the weekend, just wonder why the program didn't catch it and allow this happen? Any explanation?

Posted: 7/28/2007 6:17:48 AM | They really should make it so you don't type "all THIS" into the text button, and to hit the POST button, all of a sudden to realize you can't post it and get that message.
I think if you hit the "reply" button, is when you should see the message.
Why waste all your time typing, when they could have saved you time BEFORE you typed anything. | |

Posted: 11/6/2007 5:49:26 PM | If all else fails.. read directions.
The issue here seems to be that people are questioning a policy that is clearly outlined in the Rules of Posting. Even after a moderator takes the time to post links which even more clearly explain the rules and filters...the question is repeated.. and repeated.
My question is ...Can these people not read or do they think for some peculiar reason that they are exempt from the policies.?????
Excessive posting in any thread or off topic chat is a violation. Padding content with random characters is also a violation.. so typing 150 x's, etc. ,to get to 200 characters isn't exactly beneficial.
If you see violations.. report them in the report forum abuse thread. Instead of b1tching about it in here, post it where it is supposed to be reported.JMO
Edit.... the edit option is also there, in part, to avoid excessive posts. You can add to any post for up to 15 minutes or make corrections or whatever.. no need to create a new post to say" opps.. I meant to say"... | |

Posted: 1/7/2008 10:05:41 PM | | I am having a lot of trouble posting in general. I am not breaking any of the rules in the FAQ which I have read, by the way, and I am not able to post more than once or twice a day, IN DIFFERENT THREADS. When I try to post, I am simply taken to the page of the thread I am replying to, without the post being created. No error message, no nothing. | |

Posted: 1/10/2008 11:07:13 AM | Are some people monitored more closely than others . . ??
I've often gotten the 'No more than 2 in the last 10' rule when I try to post more than my allotted ' 2 ' . .
But . . 'Some' people seem to be Immune . .
I just saw a thread in which the OP posted
4 of the 1st _7_ . . and . .
_7_ of the 1st 20 . .
Including _3_ consecutively . . within 1:42 . .
Are they just 'Lucky' . . ??? | |

If " 2-in-10 " is a 'Rule' . . How can someone post _3_ times . .
in less than _2_ Minutes . . ?? | |

Posted: 1/12/2008 12:37:46 PM | | 2 - in - 10 rule pertains to 2 posts in last 10 posts on the SAME thread. I hope that cleared it up for you. | |

1st of all, it's not a rule. It's a filter, designed to limit the number of short, chatty, non-contributive posts in a thread.
Secondly, posts over 200 characters long are unaffected by the filter. Since the filter's main purpose was to limit non-contributive posts.

Posted: 1/12/2008 12:51:54 PM | That's what I was referring to . .
_3_ posts . . In the _Same_ thread . . Same Subject . . Right on top of each other . .
less than 2 minutes apart . . !!
I've been Blocked from making a 3rd post on the same subject . . On Topic . .
3 D A Y S Apart . . !!
...OR . . do I need to make a Formal *Abuse * Report . . ??
I don't see it as a BIG deal . . it's just that .. if Others can do it. . why can't _I_ ?? | |

Posted: 1/12/2008 1:06:22 PM | ^^^^
I will once again, very carefully, try to explain to you:
longer posts, are unaffected by the filter.
If someone's posted several times, and you can't: it's likely due to the fact that their posts are long enough to be unaffected.
The number of minutes, or days, between your posts is irrelevant.
Did you even bother to read the very bold moderator's notice, in the 1st post of this thread?
OR . . do I need to make a Formal *Abuse * Report . . ?? Who's being abused? | |

Posted: 1/12/2008 2:41:30 PM | I Have read those paragraphs . . Months ago . .
If things slip through the cracks . . it's no big deal . .
I didn't find their Multiple Posts Rude, Abusive or in anyway Objectionable . .
No need for Formal Reports . . yet . .
There ARE other 'Issues' that may be brought-up . . if and when they become a problem, though . .
All in time . .
Thanks, again . . !!
