Rotghroth Rhapsody Tails Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 Do the boards have flood protection so it would prevent you from making too many posts at one time? It's supposed to have a 60 second delay before double-posting... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk Lady J Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 The flood protection is funny. It lets double posts pass by with no problem, then prevents you from making one post on one thread, then making a post on another thread. I don't know why. It annoys me.

Unflappable Drayk stranger Posted August 22, 2002 Author Share Posted August 22, 2002 I only press the buttons once, and it sometimes double-posts even if the "flood protection" thing doesn't come up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk The Akeipas Posted August 22, 2002 Share Posted August 22, 2002 I only pressed it once then later on when I pressed back button on a different forum it said thank you for posting and caused a double post of the earlier post!

Garrulous Glaahk Misc Staple Posted August 28, 2002 Share Posted August 28, 2002 I checked my last fifty posts, and there’s no sign of double posting. And no high speed internet needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To prevent this from happening, try double-clickihng the "Back" button. If you still get the double post bug, press the arrow next to "Back" (if you're using IE) or right-click on back (for Netscape Users) and then click on the second or third page (the one before you post). EDIT: Alternate solution: When you see the page that says "Thank you for posting," bang the "STOP" button and click back TWICE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
