i.e slow down a little, you may be getting into a heated exchange.
I just got screwed over by this, It strikes me as insane to be rate-limited to “slow down” and not get into a “heated exchange” when the limit is done by checking the user’s karma for the last 20 comments from any time period. 20 comments from me go back months, I can’t get all that much slower. And 3 downvoters and −1 is an awfully small limit, and easy to hit just out of bad luck.
Also, if you post from greaterwrong, and you hit the limit, your comment and the effort spent writing it is just lost.
