Any time I try to look back at some of my old posts, I get:

Sorry, the board administrator has enabled search flood control. Please wait at least 5 seconds before trying again.



This happens even if I have not been on the site or performed any searches.

Click on my name to go to my profile.
Under Profile Options on the right, click Find Members Posts.

Note: Find Members Topics doesn't exhibit the problem.

Still no workie for me.

First, I tried SirAndy's posts. First attempt....flood search (although I had just opened my browser and came on the site). Count to 10 and then second attempt worked.

Second, I tried my topics. First attempt, same error. Count to 10....it worked.

Third, I tried my posts. Could never get it to work. Count to 10 or count to 30. No luck.

Strange.....

Perhaps we are getting indexed by a webbot that is triggering the board software to react this way? Note: webbots don't have obey robots.txt files although the responsible ones do. :shrug:
