Should be fairly straightforward. Simply 'save' the last time this user has posted a message. Then the next time they attempt to post a message check if the alloted time has passed and process accordingly.

I see you are using dict, so just add a record with that info and you should be set.

I do do that. "LastMessage" var of the tuple in the dict. It's not enough if they make multiple windows all spamming in a loop. Some of the messages get through

Ah ok, perhaps if you add microsecond information?
