How to disable or decrease flood control time for specific users or usergroups?

Also in which category in Vbulletin Options can I tweak the site-wide timer? Thanks.

You will need to write a plugin to do this per user or usergroup. Do a search on "floodchecktime" and you should find some posts on how to do this.

I got this one.

at gobal_start add this plugin

if ($vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid'] == 2) {
$vbulletin->options['floodchecktime'] = 1800;
}

you'll have to manually change the values. usergroup #2 has a 30 minute (1800 second) wait. everyone else would follow the default floodcheck set in the admincp.
