The Offer Cool Down Makes This Site Frusturating To Trade on
I'll be blunt, I hate the cool down on offering. I know it serves a purpose. But it's infuriating, having to wait 2 or so minutes on every trade I want to offer on. Could it perhaps be shorter? I know spam could be a real annoyance on a site like this, but this block makes it extremely time consuming to offer on multiple hats. Also, the timer for the cool down is just broken it often jumps to a random number from 40-300 seconds when you try to offer during the cool down leaving the user unsure of how long is left.
Maybe A mod could clear up why this needs to be in place and have random/long times.
Or maybe some other users share a similar opinions, I'd like to hear people's thoughts on this feature

It's spam protection as you said, and yes, going around offering on every trade within the space of a couple minutes is spamming, using a trade offer is just as effective, you really don't have to comment on peoples trades to give them an offer.

The site has to index a huge amount of players, comments, backpacks, items, ect. The timer is in place for spam protetion, and to reduce the chance of the site crashing, simple as that.

If you want to reduce the amount of times you see this message, send them a trade offer, add them on Steam, or even take it easy on the offers.
