Camel, that kind of post is inappropriate. This forum is supposed to be about helping others. Granted, we all have a bit of fun now and then, but suggesting a user format their hd is beyond the pail.

To put it bluntly: be productive or be somewhere else.

iago: Not too much.

TeEhEiMaN:  The least complicated method is to wait a fixed amount for each message you send.  Most people do this, plus waiting a small amount for each character in the message.  In addition, you can increase the wait if you've sent over a specified amount of messages or characters in a given time.  For an excellent example, look here: http://botdev.valhallalegends.com/documents/vbantiflood.html

Edit: quotes messed up. it was adding an extra open quotes tag right before the end quote tag, so i took them out.

I only did it twice ;D

TeEhEiMaN, you might want to search for the answer; I think vb code was actually posted for using SetTimer and KillTimer. The generally accepted ammount of time to wait seems to be:
Delay = LastChatLen * 15 + 2700
