I’m tackling the topic so throttling can be a feature in Buddypress itself (core feature), not simply as a plugin.

I really tried to simple write a plugin and skip the core files modifications, but it’s just not working out. Maybe you can help out here, I will post the 3 core file functions which I modified as…[Read more]

Throttling is one thing (telling the user “hey slow down a bit”) but setting an absolute limit for the number of friendships goes against the concept of a community.

Going back to the ORIGINAL point of this topic, I said I will add throttling to the activity page and the friendship…[Read more]

I am not sure if they added Throttling to the new Buddypress version. I opened a ticket months ago, the milestone has been set to: version 1.7 to Future Release http://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3732. This is a bit frustrating since Throttling makes for great spam control.
