| Jan 15, 2010 at 0:44 | comment | added | Vinko Vrsalovic StaffMod | The idea is awful as implemented. I've been saying all along that the problem is not having a limit, the problem is not making the limit known a priori. That, coupled with the fact that a much better way to prevent spamming than linear increases is to disable the button, makes the idea bad IMO. This isn't related to change resistance. | |
| Jan 14, 2010 at 17:14 | comment | added | balpha StaffMod | Well, we (I don't exclude myself) tend to think those ideas are bad just because they are different. After having thought about this for half a day, I actually think the idea does make some sense. As long, and that is my point, as people know about it. | |
| Jan 14, 2010 at 16:27 | comment | added | Vinko Vrsalovic StaffMod | By the way, saying that "we'll get used to it" is not a good argument to defend a bad idea. | |
| Jan 14, 2010 at 7:56 | comment | added | balpha StaffMod | And I can just imagine you going "Excellent..." à la Monty Burns :) Anyway, no need for more words, just different words. How about "You have 30 seconds left before you can comment again" [granted, it's one more word] and then wait for the bug reports that this countdown timer doens't seem to work... | |
| Jan 14, 2010 at 7:50 | comment | added | Jeff Atwood | I don't think more words would be helpful here; the core message of "slow it down" seems sufficient. Also, it is somehow extra-hilarious to me that the more you push the button, the longer it takes. | |
