Thanks for your contribution

I don't know if this was intentional, but you don't check for the visible status of the posts made (i.e: if I soft delete my own post it will still count).

Also, can't the DB UNIX_TIMESTAMP() value vary from than of the PHP server value (time()) ?

It's intentional, because I wanted to stop flood even if post are moderated. But I can add an option to choose all posts count or only visible ones.

Also, can't the DB UNIX_TIMESTAMP() value vary from than of the PHP server value (time()) ?

Not sure it can, I'll check that. Personaly, I prefer basing my tests on the DB time when I can, but it's probably an error as MyBB inserts dateline value from PHP value.
