I didn't mean to be "that guy", but managed to post the same thread multiple times. The way it happens (it's happened before) is that I type up something, hit POST, and nothing happens. The page remains static even after a few seconds. Thinking that perhaps I didn't actually hit Enter, I do so again. Most of the time that will work, but sometimes even then it won't. The next morning I see that some idiot has three threads all with the same title, something about selling his book. Well that's an obvious spammer... only it was me this time. Apparently there's a time limit on deleting threads because that didn't work.

Strangest of all: After posting, I wondered if I'd left multiple threads and checked the main page. Nope, it showed my thread once. Next morning, there it was, three times.

The errant threads have been sent away.

No harm, no foul.

There have been a lot of double postings lately, in all the threads.

You'll need to log in to post.
