Summary

At the CSM summit CCP commited to reducing the 5 min forum timer

From http://www.eveonline.com/council/transcripts/2010/CSM_CCP_Meetings_18-20_02_2010.pdf

CCP announced that the timer will be reduced but should the problem, excessive spam messages, it was designed to curb return the changes will be reverted.

This hasn't happened yet. I would like an update on the progress of this as it should be a trivial case to reduce the 5 mins to (for example) 2 mins...

Potential Solution

Reduce the timer as promised.

Pros

• Less frustration when trying to reply to multiple threads
• Reduced number of people logging out and back in again to circumvent the timer

Cons

• Forum spamming might resume
