    Change 60 second PM wait time?

    Can this be changed to say 30 seconds? I find every time I log in to reply to my messages I often wait about 30 seconds to send them.

    captcha got beat years ago, we use a logical sentence based challenge/answer question now which prevents the actual spam BOTS, but all it takes is a human to look at it and update the bots with the correct answer and we get flooded again

    who knows... he might need the enlargment. lol

    I've seen other forums at 20seconds... I thought there was a membership approval system where not everyone gets in, so I'm guessing it's not working?

    how many other forums have enjoyed the reliability and data integrity that Dk has? DK is so reliable and spammer free due to having many levels of protection.

    I honestly didn't realize that spam bots where that big an issue. Even here on DK....

    I guess it's things like the 60 second wait that address this issue?

    I mean, there is tons I would change, but then again, keep up the good work Steve.
