Thank you DC for implementing that system to the file archive submission process (oh it does prevent spam so well), but I was wondering;

Where in the bloody hell can I find out how much time I have left before I can upload again?

Nothing big - It's just that I hate not knowing when I've got the free time to upload stuff to the Unreal Software CS2D files archive (and it ends up in me constantly clicking the upload button until magically my hourly limit resets and I can upload again - Quite frustrating)

Try looking at the time you last uploaded.

Or rather, my third to last upload.

But judging by that submission I should be able to post now - Which is why I wish there was some sort of timer system implemented on my profile page where I can check out (privately) how many hours I've got left before I need to wait no longer.

He meant that if it was not there. Faggots would spam with shit uploads and removing them is not easy.

maybe you should stop clicking the magical button cause it might even reset the timer.
The limit is for trolls who can't make a good skin and spam like h3ll, so yeah.. Even though your skins are aw3some the limit is there because of lazy (sorry) assholes that can't make a skin.

no it doesn't reset your timer but yes, that's the main reason why it is there. it stops idiots from spamming huge waves of crappy stuff.

nearly no one manages to create more than 3 high quality uploads per day anyway because people have to go to school or have a job or whatever. I'm sorry if it restricts you that much.

the "just wait a day" thing is simple enough in my eyes. I don't think that it is necessary to add a countdown, I'll consider to do it anyways.

if you keep having massive problems with the limit: consider to bundle more files to packs (if it makes sense)

Yep, makes sense DC, and you're a genius for including that system - Adding a countdown timer until the upload limit lock ceases would be a good idea too, but you don't have to do it straight away. Take your time and such

And nah, it doesn't restrict me too much now - I've gotten accustomed to it, and as such I only work on projects and upload them when absolutely necessary (besides, it's holidays now, so I'm working on as many skin/sound mods as I can now :P)
