ChatBox "NOFLOOD" problem

I see from last night's logs that people are getting kicked out of the chatbox for "flooding" when they are not flooding. This seems to be a new problem with v1.2. I'm going to check in the phpFreeChat forum for information about this and a possible workaround. Sorry to anyone who's been inconvenienced.

 

"noflood" problem in Chatbox is fixed!

This took me a little longer to fix than it might because I did the "right way". (I fixed the admin panel so the value can be set properly.)

The problem was that a new "no flood" feature had been added that was too sensitive. If people typed fast, they'd get kicked out for flooding the chat. I just turned off this not-helpful feature. We don't have people who are disruptive because new members are screened - no need for this.

Thanks pro for fixing the no-flood thing

Much appreciated !

flooding is too many

flooding is too many messages in too short a time (eg in chat).
