It's pointless to speculate on the number of minutes or hours in the suggested limit, as phpBB doesn't appear to support the concept at all. Given that we're using a version that's several years old (and which can't be updated without days or weeks of downtime), you're not going to find a patch that we'd be willing to use.
I'm not going to lock this thread at this time, but I will mention that every single technical suggestion made to date is both obvious and unobtainable. There's not going to be a technical solution. As mentioned earlier,I don't think we need the non-technical solution either (more mods); so you're really just spinning your wheels.

We could all gather in a field and cast a hex on any who would try and spam. Though I assume the logistics involved would be a bit much even if there wasn't a pandemic.

The issue is with some of the special extensions to get phpBB to work with the website, IIRC.

I don’t really like this idea, if anything, I think there should be more promotions so that authority can be wielded further and you don’t have to wait for specific moderators.
Forum mods can ban a spammer and move their posts even without the expanded toolkit of a game mod.
