I'm sure I'm not the only one noticing a lot of double posts lately. Just curious as to what gives? Are folks clicking submit, seeing a brief delay and clicking submit again or is it a server glitch?

People aren't paying attention the preview. I've caught a number of potential double posts by noticing the latest post was mine.

Check your work, people!

The double posts have gone down hill. I miss the way double posts used to be.

It only happens when I browse from my phone. Chrome has a bug that happens when using my keyboard that causes The submition button to appear on top of my keyboard.


I notice every time that occurs I double post

It has happened to me quite a bit and I don't use my mobile. I have a lot going on, so probably not paying enough attention, but I think it has been taking me back to the submit page again after I submit originally. Not sure why it happens sometimes, and not others.

What about the double topic about the weather forecast by Largent80 yesterday? Was that the same thing or did he post the same topic 24 minutes after the first one?
