You don't spam enough, it seems.
If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

I never knew about it, but it's a nice feature.

Hmm, I've had successive posts, but have never got that 5 second thing. Probably because all my posts are so long--they take way more than 5 seconds to type. The blessings of being long-winded.  :D

I've gotten it before when I've had threads open in separate windows, and I type one when the other is processing rather slowly over dialup.
