Hi all,

I posted 5 questions yesterday and waited until 24 hours after posting the first question (for I had to wait until this time because of the 5 questions/24 hour rule) before attempting to post a new question.

My understanding was that I simply have 5 questions in a 24 hour period. After that period, I have another 5 questions, not so?

I'd appreciate any clarification on this!

Cheers,
Bianca ▲ Collapse
