The flood protection shouldn't cause inconvenience for users but protect against flooding nonetheless.

By default flood protection will be disabled for moderators and admins, as well as users with a good reputation (once we have the functionality needed for auditing reputation/karma).
Some features is expected to have a high request rate, like GET requests in general (in particular for search requests).
But it's not normal for a user to make a new forum post every 4th second.
