Just a quick note about posting, and a way to avoid the duplicate post thing...

When you post a message and are ready to post it, click the Submit button ONCE. Even if it looks like the board is not responding, DON"'T CLICK AGAIN. If you get impatient while waiting and click the Submit button more than once, you will post more than one copy of your message.

If you receive a 'timeout' message (or more likely, a 'network is busy' message), then you should try clicking again. Short of that don't click more than once.

Patience is a virtue. Thank you for your kind attention.

Webbie,

Thanks for the helpful hint on duplicate posts. 

My biggest frustration is the "network busy" message, which i get frequently while just trying to navigate the board, not just when trying to post. 

For example, when I first clicked on new threads to read this post, I got "NB".  Then, when I tried to open your post, I got "nb" then when I tried to reply to your post, I got NB. 

I'll see what happens when i hit submit on this.  I'll edit it and let you know.

Please understand that in no way, shape or form are you responsible for how well or not well this message board software works.  I understand it's probably some kind of "bug" that needs to be researched and rectified on their end.  You are and always will be the best damn webmaster ever!  Will i see you soon???

Ok, had no problem posting this, went right through!!

PS...Did you ever look into increasing the amount of time to allow editing?  Thanks, as always!! :)

PPS...ok, now that i edited the original post and am trying to resubmit the edited post, i keep getting "NB"....
