quota theory

[strongbad]

so if you posted from 0-100% quota in one day, and stopped poisting, would you stay at 100% for one month and then immediately go to 0%?

i mean you would have to post all 950 or whatever posts literally at the exact same time, but yes, i think...

If you posted 900 times in a single day (June 1st) without any posts before or after you'd stay at 100 until July 1st, at which point your quota would drop to 0% throughout the day.

Jesus Christ is it really 950 posts for full quota

No. that is slander and i demand a redaction

It is 900 posts in 30 days

[ME##]

If I make it 1800 in one day will it be full for two full months

[silvertone]

no

no

The function for caculating quota works as follows

1.) Multiply the number of days for a quota (30) in our case  by 86400 (number of seconds in a day) and subtract that the current time, to get the exact timestamp to the second 30 days ago.
2.) Pull a list of posts by a user since that timestamp. Count the number of results
3.) Divide the number of results by the number for a 100% quota (900)
4.) Display that as a percentage up to 100%


So a post made even 2592001 seconds prior to the query being made won't be counted.
