    Default Can we may "My Threads" and "My Posts" searches immune to the 60 second rule?

    I like to use "New Posts" and also to check "My Posts" or "My Threads" occasionally. Problem is, these are incompatible. I see this sort of thing a lot:

    "This forum requires that you wait 60 seconds between searches. Please try again in 30 seconds."

    I second the motion, what a pain. Many times I just give up and log off.

    I always use 'New Posts' yet I have never once seen the 60 second rule when I press it.

    I just tried pressing it quickly 5 times, and I still didn't see it.

    Yeah, it's annoying but not that big a deal.

    New Posts is already exempt, but it counts as a search, anyway. Click New Posts and then My Threads in succession.

    Just a point of interest.

    If you do the non-exempt search first (my content) you can then immediately do the new posts search. There is no timeout.

    My Content ---> New Posts.

    Oh right, thanks. My senior moment.

    It would be sufficient for "New Posts" not to count against the search timer, even if "My Posts" and "My Threads" still do.
