##        Mod title:  Flood Protection for Guests
##
##      Mod version:  1.0
##  Works on FluxBB:  1.2.*
##     Release date:  2007-05-19
##           Author:  Smartys ([email protected])
##
##      Description:  This mod allows administrators to limit how often Guests can make new posts.
##
##   Affected files:  post.php
##                    admin_groups.php
##                    include/functions.php
##
##       Affects DB:  Yes
##
##            Notes:  This mod tracks last post for Guests using IP addresses, so if you have many
##                    Guests visiting from the same IP, this may not be a good mod for you.
##
##       DISCLAIMER:  Please note that "mods" are not officially supported by
##                    FluxBb. Installation of this modification is done at your
##                    own risk. Backup your forum database and any and all
