e.g. in Ni No Kuni 2, I'm not planning to complete the 10th maze. This is just insane, and after giving up on it I read spoilers about it to make sure I don't lose anything really valuable like citizens.

Looks like it's just giving two extra researches, and of course tons of powerful items, but I'm already good with what I have.

man the time-limit for questions is not cool

Why don't they check if the one posting the question is a robot?

Journeyman Geek

@Derpy I have altered the language. Pray I do not alter it more.

watchme

And if he posts a lot of question in a row - there are still people checking questions and so on. If he posts 100 questions in a minute - well, that's obivously spam, then one should look what's wrong there and ban the user for around 1 week or so. That's much better

Shadow Wizard

@watchme the questions rate limit is not there to stop spammers, it's there to stop low quality flood.

@SmokeDetector hello

I heard here are people with excellent opinions and ideas

But if it's there to stop low quality flood, when then do people with high rep go through that 40-minute-burden?

why*

Shadow Wizard

@watchme they don't... 40 minutes limit is even for Jon Skeet as far as I can tell.

The base assumption is that nobody really needs to ask so many questions in such a short time span, and if they do, they have bigger problems.

watchme

sometimes I gathered many questions together as I am not always on stackexchange (many of you won't therefore understand me - just kidding), and when I am on stackexchange I want to post these question... :P

Journeyman Geek

I thought the rate limiting is for new users + rep based

so if you got rep on a specific site you're not affected

Shadow Wizard

@JourneymanGeek nope, I'm pretty sure 40 minutes rate limit is for everyone. Never tested though.

Likely, yes... if that user (or any other) chooses to make divisive, gender-demonizing attacks against the network... without any apparent understanding of the network.

That tweet could have been, "What does romantic fidelity have to do with programming!?!?" Instead it focused on, "female treachery." Which, you know, was what the individual post happened to be about... because... context.
