I'm not experiencing any of the problems that anyone else is outside of the very occasional double post. Even that is rare for me. One thing I have noticed, however, is when I'm in the menu of any forum, I can't click on the little + button to open just the first post. It spins and spins but never opens. I have to open the entire thread just to see the first post. How inconvenient! lol, just kidding. It's a pain but not really. Just wanted you to know.

Test post, just a test.

I spent some time looking into the double posting, and editing issues last night. A VB expert will have to look into them as from a server standpoint I don't see anything there that could cause the problems, so it's likely more related to vBulletin, plugins / mods, templates, stylesheets and the like.

One small change I made, is I made the post reply and new post, plus new thread functions all happen only on one server instead of being chosen at random and load-balanced. I do not know if this will make any difference with the double posting issue, but I am wondering if it does. Please post back here if you see double posting still. I don't know if it will help at all or not, just a shot in the dark. Same for the login function as well..

I also disabled the quick edit function since it's not working at the moment as pointed out ... you always have to go to Advanced mode.

@dataiv , here's a double post, after the change to direct to one server, instead of load-balancing

UPDATE:
When I posted the above note, I also received a message on forum, which I've never encountered in the past. This must be result of directing to one server.

"""The following errors occurred with your submission

• This forum requires that you wait 3 seconds between posts. Please try again in 2 seconds."""

I just waited and accessed the post from a different tab, and verified the post went through regardless of this message.

[dataiv]

OK, interesting. That was another setting "Minimum time between posts", so you would have had a double post.... but it stopped the 2nd one from going through, yet the first one still did. Thanks for finding another double. I reset that setting to 0 to allow posts at any time.

Today's double post. Will add as they occur:

I was so careful to try and avoid the double post, and it happened again.

SC forum was responding quick & fast, after entering POST QUICK REPLY, there was no "waiting to complete quick post", yet it posted twice.

Here's today's double post:

My double post(s) also happened for sure when I didn't double click or anything like that. So I understand. A VB specialist will be looking into this soon further.

I've been having site issues since the evening of Wednesday, April 12th. Mainly it's the blank post issue when trying to edit long posts (my TL/WL, the official printable coupons thread) that rocko's been having as well. Can't get around it. Even after splitting up my TL and WL into different threads. They're just sitting in limbo for now.

Formatting has been doing a bit of it's own thing on my TL/WL too. And will do things like take minutes to unbold one line of text, or I'm unable to edit the formatting of text at all.

Got a couple incorrect logins for the first time today too even though I entered the correct username and password.

I'm still not able to update my trade list and its been over a week- F5, refresh does not work--just blank post..and if I try to copy/paste and start a new thread, blank-blank-blank..any advice? Its frustrating not being able to post coupons on a coupon site.

I have finally fallen to the dreaded double post. No message about leaving the page, nothing. Just bam! There it is. Also, having a tough time with thelackofspacesinareplytoanotherpost. I used to be able to get around it by going advanced but today my advanced was blank. Is that what you're talking about too, @rockco ? Then I figured out that if I chose the multi-quote button the spaces worked.
