Bumped because I know I’m not the only one having this problem.
OK, I fixed it. The <15 is in a different spot in 2.5 but it’s still in wp-includes/comment.php.
/**
* wp_throttle_comment_flood() – {@internal Missing Short Description}}
*
* {@internal Missing Long Description}}
*
* @since 2.1.0
*
* @param unknown_type $block {@internal Missing Description}}

* @param unknown_type $time_newcomment {@internal Missing Description}}
* @return unknown {@internal Missing Description}}
*/
function wp_throttle_comment_flood($block, $time_lastcomment, $time_newcomment) {
if ( $block ) // a plugin has already blocked… we’ll let that decision stand
return $block;
if ( ($time_newcomment – $time_lastcomment) < 15 )
return true;
return false;
I changed this line:
if ( ($time_newcomment – $time_lastcomment) < 15 )
to: if ( ($time_newcomment – $time_lastcomment) < -3800 )
No more posting too quickly error.
I’m still not sure why flood control isn’t something you can adjust through Options, though.
