Posting comments too quickly (2 posts)

    I am running a blogging server at school using wordpress mu. And the kids are posting comments to a question in the classroom. Since they are posting the comment pretty much at the same time, some of them get a "You are posting comments too quickly slow down"

    This happens for people that are posting their first comment. Is there a way to get rid of this.

    Thanks,
    Ben

    Changing the timeout period is discussed here:

    Considering that all of the kids are in a classroom, I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that they're either all using the same IP address or they're coming in through a router which is managing the connection. (Both likely with a school environment.) Finding where in the code that wp_throttle_comment_flood is called from and commenting it out may be a better method for you.

    Hope this helps
