So, recently I've been noticing.

Even only hitting "submit" once--it sometimes will go and double post. It's usually proceeded by a longer pause in loading afterwards.

What's the deal with that, or is it just random shenanigans?

Rather than start a new thread, ill add on to this one.
As well as the double post problems, im also getting it pop up that its unable to post the message.
If i try again it double posts, if i leave it then i dont post atall lol.

The first error here is a display glitch - click refresh after posting to reload the thread and the second post will be gone. It generally happens when you view a thread, make a post and then before your post is added, another person makes a post. This confuses the cache which resets itself, but the first view (your view after posting) will have that double post.

The second error will pop up in the event of an actual double post and is a combination of some other glitches and the first error. Both are known and on my to-fix list.

Cheers Lego, was just making sure it got some attention

It happened again! Ahhhh!

It will continue to happen until I finally build up enough evidence to find the error. It is an incredibly boring section of the code and does not happen too often so I am quite lazy about fixing it!

Ah well then!
