Double posting in forums.

Hi,

A number of times when I post too threads (generaly a reply) it seems to put the same post up twice.
I am starting to feel I look a little stupid when people see my post's
Am I doing something wrong or is this a site bug?

Are you using an iPhone and double tapping the "Submit" button?

I think it happens when you hit the "back" button after submitting a reply as this takes you back to the "submit reply" screen. You need to hit the "back to topic" button to prevent this.


Edited to add:

This happens on my Macbook Air.

Shouldn't on a PC, but there are some quirks when accessing the site via certain mobile phones.

No I am using a PC and I am not using the back button just following the back to topic link.
At least it isn't only me

Next time it happens, can you post a link to the thread in question so that I can take a look?

No problem will do!
