Thanks PV for reply. I had bitfeild in correct folder. This is working fine in reply and new reply, It works great setting differant groups for differant times but the new post doesnt work. People still flooding one after another. Is there something Im missing? I just noticed I have vb 3.53 is that it? Thanks again

That is something you should report to jelsoft, as afaic flood has never applied to new thread for some reason.

Is this working on 3.5.4 does anyone know? PV said he was going to update it but it doesnt look like he has.

Bounce · #26 07-14-2006, 09:56 PM

Can this be set to just 1 user or would I have to set up a new usergroup and add that userto it, its not all users we want to limit, just one or 2
many thanks :bunny:

Really great mod, thanks.

Have installed on 3.6.3 and seems to work perfectly.

I don?t get the meaning of "Dynamic Flood Control Time" and so I don?t use this feature.
But the "Per-Usergroup Flood Control Time" works without any problems.

Really were looking for a mod like this and I am happy that it also works on 3.6 ^^

hmm ok I think I get the meaning of it now. ^^

Btw. are you sure you havn?t mixed X and Y there?

X -Last X hours...

Y -Post Number...

akanevsky · #30 12-18-2006, 12:53 AM

Yes, I have - good point. Just use common sense to fill those out based on the rest of the field title (rather than the X or the Y).

Please why not make one for vb4 ?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
