I get that when I haven't even done a search previously.

I often feel that the search "clock" is moving more slowly than reality. Or maybe I'm just moving too fast...

The google TB search doesn't do that to you...

I think for the internal search, that's just to keep load off the webserver by putting a quota on the the number of DB queries a user can do in a specific period of time.

Even more irritating still, is the fact that you cant (at least I cant) see the first line or two of a thread when I put the cursor arrow over the title, nor the forum selecter at the bottom right hand side of the page. These are only available when I sign in. Sometimes I may browse, and only sign in when I come across something I want to comment on or contribute to. Does not happen on any other forum that I am a member of. Why only TB ? I'd gladly swap problems Jimmy.

Maybe you get that messages at 8 seconds and it does spot you the one, Mr GlassIsHalfEmpty.

That's called Parkingson's disease.

Jimmy, you're not taking this seriously enough. If they gave you that extra second, God only knows what may happen. First it's being leniant with a few seconds on talkbass, next thing you know, we're all killing to survive in a postapocalyptic wasteland. It'll be like Thuunderdome, dammit! THUNDERDOME!

I blame that second for the amount of P v J, Tube v SS, how many watts, I need a new bass and amp that is active w/ exotic woods and the amp need 4 cabs and a trillion watts (oh, and my budget is $50) threads

So why aren't you signed in? That's about the first thing I do on a new computer: Sign on to TB and check the little "keep me signed in" box (or however it reads). Unless you're sharing computer accounts with others - which is a crappy idea from start to finish - I can't see why I should ever not be logged in.

The reasons why I do or don't log in are beside the point. I'm puzzled as to why this problem only exists on TB.

That was one of the biggest perks when becoming a mod- no search clock (we have to use the search all the time for the job).

Yup. Without some delay, A user with bad or stupid intent could lock the whole thing up with a very simple script. I'm sure there are some other safeguards in the code but best stopped at the front door.

Do you use the "New Posts" button? That counts as a search.
