I know why sometimes the posts come out duplicated even when you only clicked submit once. It's when you click "Submit" right when the the time goes to the next minute.

Example: 6:25 - 6:26 You post right when the time changes, so your post comes out twice, one in the 6:25 time, one in the 6:26 time.

Well, never happened to me like that, it rather doesn't load the page propely so I hit refresh. I try to do it in under 30 seconds but obviously, I fail.

Terribly.

But maybe you're right >_>

how did you know this stuff? Did you time your post?

It could be internet lagging; it happened to be twice on AG. Once it became a triple posts.

how would that be so? if you click the button at 559 then wouldn't it be counted as 559 instead of 5:29 and 5:30

It's happened to me about 5 times just in the past hour of being in the forums, it's quite bothersome.

could it be sheer luck or speed of your computer vs server?

Well, maybe not all the time but lots of the time when my post doubles their at two different times...this is just an opinion mostly but I think I'm right.

@plokkey
Is that sarcasm?

@Graham
Well, it's happened 4 times to me so far and they were all what I described so I guess it's what I came up with as a conclusion.

Looks like some people are lookin' forward to taking advantage of this opportunity.....
