60 Second Rule Is Not Fast-Typer Friendly!

[grinningghost]

All that hard work I did in high school, learning to type at lightning speed on a MANUAL typewriter - for what???

All my achievements squashed by the darned 60 second rule on the DIS!

 

[Cindy B]

I have to agree.. and I learned on a MANUAL as well.

I am constantly squashed by the 60 second rule as well..

The 60-second rule is my nemisis!



And, I had to wait 60 seconds to post this!

I though Bob was your nemisis?

He will be greatly disappointed

IT was 49 seconds once upon a time...too many quick and clever Disers slowing it down for everyone else, I guess.

Same here! I am a fast typer and the 60 second rule drives me crazy!

We better be nice or they'll probably make it 120 seconds.

That might kill some folks from the strain.

Same here. I'm a slow typist though.

I understand the reason for the rule. Too many bad apples have spoiled it for us.

 

[liznboys]

I don't even type fast and it annoys me. lol

 

[piglet too]

My problem is not just that I can type kinda fast, I just read too fast! If I am giving shorter responses, I can never do the 60 second rule at my reading speed!

 

[Eeyore1954]

Wow -- there are people that have that much to say and can actually post more than once in 60 seconds? It usually takes me at least 60 seconds to begin shifting my brain out of neutral!!

OK for us uniformed, What's the 60 second rule????
