I’ve noticed quite a lot of the same replies on a few threads recently. I reported my own post earlier as it had repeated the reply three times over the course of 4-5 hours. Just looked again and it has repeated it again.

Glitch in the system?

Ps, it’s the Forester XT thread in GG if it helps, but I had multiple posts in another thread repeated the other week too.

It tends to be when you navigate backwards and hit where you submitted a post a second time, but I guess it might manifest in other ways, like if you left a tab open and it reloaded. A very old-fashioned web problem for an old-fashioned website - it used to happen in a lot more places.

No. Just the normal Forum tab at the bottom, next to My Stuff or the Forum tab at the top next to Buy.
It’s only started to do this in the last week or so. Seems a bit strange.

Thanks for flagging this. We're currently investigating the issue but are unable to reproduce or see any technical problems that might be causing this.

We're continuing to investigate and look at solutions, and will update when we can.

I reckon I can reproduce this easily enough

Edit: huh, can't make it do it on demand as I expected, oh well!
