How cool is this forum software?

Is the software powerful enough that it can restrict people from posting X minutes after a previous post?

If it can do this, can X be a function of the total number of posts, such that newly registered throwaway accounts have to wait a while before posting, while older accounts can post often?

I think this is a reasonable idea for dealing with spammers while minimizing unintended consequences.

Any thoughts?

I think Americans call them Freedom Fries.

I'm Australian too fwiw.

some of the american folk might not understand.

i'm a caring and sharing sort of guy.

i think that french fries is a good name - they're sort of yellow, and they get eaten very quickly.

Ha ha, he is going to suck so badly. I might just postal vote for him to put you all in the poo.

In Italy they're called, patatine. You won't be able to pronounce that properly cause yous are all ignorance.

But oddly when we order fish and chips we know what we're getting.
