So since I can't post in the website feedback or well anywhere else I am posting it here. I only have 1 post made today outside of the new player help forum but when I try to make a post anywhere it tells me that I have reached my daily limit already. My limit should be 3 posts a day since I have selected a level 20 character as my main.
Can't post anywhere because daily limit counted wrong

08-24-2013, 04:36 AMRavinousKurohiPosts in the New Player Help forum count towards the limit. It's bad code imo.Quote:

It counts 24 hrs from your post.

08-24-2013, 04:39 AMcrazy0takuIf you read the forum guidelines it says new player help doesn't count and especially since I have posted about 8-9 posts in this forum already I would say that is wrong.Quote:

Your level has to be 25 to post in some of the other places.

The post limit in certain areas of the forums does pose as a hinderence and an annoyance (just like the 1000 character limit).

08-24-2013, 04:43 AMcrazy0takuThe only thing that I see from the forum guidelines for level 25 is making your own thread. There was a post in forum feedback about this topic and I couldn't add to it because of the limit so I made this topic but as stated above if it is 24 hours from your first post then I really do hope that gets changed to a real daily limit.Quote:

New player help forum posts count (totally unfair), Reporting posts also counts as a post (also unfair).

08-24-2013, 04:54 AMcrazy0takuLike I said above new player help forum posts don't count. If they did count I wouldn't have been able to make this thread because you need to be at least level 25 to make new threads.Quote:

I just went to the forum guidelines again and I must have skipped the small part where they said this but I found it:
* The restriction will reset every 24 hours.
So now I hope that gets changed to reset every calendar date. -

Beta forums were the exact same way with the new post max (20 / 24 hrs) and if you had 20, you couldn't post until one of them passed the 24 hr mark.

I am above my post count and can't post anywhere but here (and posting here counted toward my total posts. I only made 13 posts elsewhere, when I ought to have had 20 available to me. I didn't say that you're restricted...I said they COUNT...Quote:

Sadly some people spam forums with huge posts and make the entire process unworkable. It is tough and hard but as a Forum Admin myself i know that this sort of limit is really necessary...after all we are here to play THE GAME the forum communication is a nice adjunct but we need to be supportive of the devs. I hope they may relax the limits a bit, forcing everyone to have high level counts seems a bit unfair to new players but they did allow this section to be out of the limit and Tech Support too.

Posts here aren't supposed to count but they do. If you post here 3 times then you can't post in places with the restriction because the forum thinks you've already posted 3 times for the day. It's likely a bug.

08-24-2013, 05:49 AMcrazy0takuNew player help should not count towards your total post count. So I guess this thread can be to complain about that now.Quote:
