Bug when posting makes some people post more than once.
« on: January 16, 2007, 01:25:54 am »
I'm getting (presumably) the same bug as other people - which is that sometimes when I post it brings up the screen with the little blue box that says "there was an error". Sorry I didn't screenshot it, I'll try to remember that again for next time.

FYI - I just hit back, and when I get back to the composition screen there is that little red warning that says "someone else posted while you were blathering on". When I look down that someone is me! So I haven't been multiple posting (that I know of), but I can understand why some people have.

Sorry there isn't a lot of specific detail here, but it has happened both times in the "what faith are you" thread in P&R if that helps (it hasn't happened in any others for me), and presumably Xam has the same or similar bug in that thread.

I was just taking a screenshot of it.  It happened earlier today and it just happened again.  Also in the P&R section.

I'm using firefox like jbox is.

LOL.  It did it for this response too.

Don't know if this helps, but I figured you can always ignore it if it doesn't. Here's the HTML underlying the error message I got when I added the new P&R thread about the "wee for wii" lady who died.

It's happening to me also, and I noticed that even though it does post, it's not updating my post count.

There was an issue with the database this morning. Are any of you still experiencing the issue now?

Bumping this, as the problem seems to be back again.

Think that's fixed now.
