Do the boards have flood protection so it would prevent you from making too many posts at one time? It's supposed to have a 60 second delay before double-posting... -------------------- Tails MSN Hot-Mail Address --- WWEsports@hotmail.com Posts: 455 | Registered: Saturday, June 1 2002 07:00 |

The flood protection is funny. It lets double posts pass by with no problem, then prevents you from making one post on one thread, then making a post on another thread. I don't know why. It annoys me. -------------------- "To sit in solemn silence on a dull dark dock/in a pestilential prison with a lifelong lock/awaiting the sensation of a short sharp shock/from a cheap and chippy chopper on a big black block." ************* Visit The Kavern webpage, host of Phoenix and Polaris, and home of a soon-to-be famous writing center!

I only press the buttons once, and it sometimes double-posts even if the "flood protection" thing doesn't come up. -------------------- DONOR Fat Freddys Drop Shirow Miwa Posts: 1112 | Registered: Friday, July 19 2002 07:00 |

I checked my last fifty posts, and there’s no sign of double posting. And no high speed internet needed. :P -------------------- "I liked white better." Posts: 771 | Registered: Tuesday, December 11 2001 08:00 |

quote:To prevent this from happening, try double-clickihng the "Back" button. If you still get the double post bug, press the arrow next to "Back" (if you're using IE) or right-click on back (for Netscape Users) and then click on the second or third page (the one before you post). EDIT: Alternate solution: When you see the page that says "Thank you for posting," bang the "STOP" button :D and click back TWICE.
