Why do we get double posts and unreadable screens when we post?

[Guest]

I keep getting a warning that I have to wait to make a second post (of the exact same content as the first one) after I make a post when I haven't even attempted to make a second post.

Also the text if often all mixed together and unreadable.

What's going on?

I see a few duplicate posts so it must be happening to more than just me.

For me, when I get this problem, I just reload the forum and I have my new post a single time. Bandaid fix, but seems to eliminate double posts.

I am trying that now. I logged out, closed the window/tab, opened a new tab then logged in, writing this post.

We will see in a few seconds.

Thanks for the idea Mike.

I know not the reasons; I generally let these things slide and in a few weeks something somewhere will happen to settle it all down. I hope.

I am having serious errors, double posts, it keeps asking me if I want to go to another page, this is on 2 different computers using 2 web browsers each. There is a problem with the code for the website...tim

I have that box pop up too, but I always click "leave page", and no double post for me.

It just started doing that a short time ago, someone must have done an update that caused it to become unfriendly an forces us to have to do unnecessary button clicks...I am on enough other forums to know that this one is having problems with the front end. Tim

I hope so, we don't need any more baby forums running around here.

I had a buddy of mine who had a baby after getting fixed. That was a surprise.
