Suggestions - Annoying anti-spam message

Post subject: Annoying anti-spam message
I understand the reasoning behind the anti-spam message
"You cannot make another post so soon after your last; please try again in a short while."
but 3 minutes for regular users and 1 minute for mods is really irritating when there are multiple posts I want to reply to and I am not trying to spam. I have noticed that these spammers tended to be new accounts before this was implemented.

It is possible to implement a system where after a user posts, let's say, 100 non-spam posts, that the timeout can be reduced or even eliminated. If it is abused, that specific user has to post 200 non-spam posts to be eligible to be timeout free. This is very similar to the VIP status in the site.

This forum does not have the facility your after. However the time between posts has been reduced to 2 minutes
