QuoteBUT if the input is somehow Wrong, there wont be any result.
Because of this i wanted to make a Timer and if i didn't Recieve an
Answer after 30 Seconds, it failed(Error Message or Something like
that).
I would suggest that a better, as in less fragile, approach would be
to return an error rather than nothing and then rely on a timeout
which could be impacted by network connectivity issues. A 30 second
timeout could also lead to a DOS attack on the server.
