    oh i see. well that's not so bad. the patch notes don't actually state a lock-out time frame. just when the with withdraw count resets.

    but something doesn't make sense. if the lockout is only for 30minutes, why do we need a reset time for the withdraw counts? wouldn't they just auto reset after the 30minute lockout? or is every withdraw after your third strike initiate a 30 minute lock out?

    The latter. Every withdrawal from 3 onward gives a 30-minute penalty.

    10 posts per page is only the default setting; it is bad, and you should feel bad if you haven't changed it.
