MODS GET OVER HERE! (the 180 second wait)
Do you hate waiting 180(3 minutes) in between looking up forum/thread posts? Why is there even a wait for this???

Its literally the most annoying thing because normally if I search something I want to search multiple things
surely it's not necessary? Especially when we all sit refreshing the search page for the timer anyways

That always happens to me and it's the ******* worst. There can't be a good reason why that limit exists.

Yes, specially if I'm trying to find something and I don't know the exact words.

Then what's the point of "threads"/"forum posts" under My Atrl? There's the convenience right there, yet the wait makes it no so unreliable.

The reason is so the site doesn't crash. The 180 second wait is why it's there.
