    Evening all.

    Been posting a few replies this evening. After submitting each reply I return to the "edit post" screen and a message appears at the top informing me I have to wait another 29 seconds before posting.

    Odd thing is, 1) It's never done this before today and 2) The message is posted anyway.

    Is anybody else experiencing this?
    (Edit: Yes, I only clicked the Submit button once.)

    Actually was indirectly caused by PHP 5.2.0 and higher throwing a warning about dividing by zero when doing modulus math (if you must know). :)

    C'mon, let's be fair. It's these kind of glitches that make DP so exciting.Going about your business thinking Will it?, won't it? Must...complete...transaction...before...site...crashes. :D

    I'm only joking, with the exception of the lame DDoS attack the other week and a few minor glitches here and there DP is still awesome, and pretty darn fast too. :eek:

    Not as fast as it should be. We are currently running without 2 database servers we usually have. :)
