Meaning, when someone tries posting, and you have it set to 24, it says, number of posts/threads allowed for 24 minutes instead of 24 hours. Unless I'm reading this wrong. But in the code it takes your minute value times 60 which I assume it is taking hours and converting to minutes. So if you put '1' as the value, 1 * 60 would be 1 hour. But it would show the user, 1 minute.

No, the time is in minutes. I originally had the defaults in hours, hence the 24. But, I changed it to minutes so that admins had more granular control. The time 60 is to bring the value in the time field into the right factor as the vb time stamp.
