Our users reported the following error message:
Translation to English is maybe not exactly correct:
"ERROR: protection of flooding with postings is activated. Please try again in 65904939 seconds."
When does this happen and how to solve it?

Chech the value of Flood Trigger, make sure it is no more then 30-40 seconds.

It happens because the flood trigger, which is designed to prevent auto-posting bots is triggered.

Not sure, heh, I'll do more tests on this on our test server. Btw, what version of PHP are you running?

Heh... Let me know if the problem persists even after you've set the limit to 2 seconds.

It seems to be the solution. I didn't hear again from the users.
