What’S Occurin’ Ed?

[Zacs-Master]

Pages hanging. People doing double posts. Latest posts showing people have posted but the thread not showing the post. Do you have Ghoulies?

[THECORBYLOON]

I e-mailed the Ab Editor a week ago about the problem but had no reply so far.

I have a post showing in the answer box on this thread that I’ve been trying, without success, to post in another thread. I've deleted it and replaced it with this - but where either of my responses end up remains to be seen.

SNAFU.

[Zacs-Master]

Yes, you do seem plagued, N. I see you’ve posted on the Theland thread we were chatting on (ooooops, not chatting, Ed.....furthering the debate) but I’ll be *** if I can see it!

[naomi24]

Success! Of sorts. My other answer still hasn't appeared at its intended destination.

[Zacs-Master]

[THECORBYLOON]

Which one were you posting on?

[naomi24]

Nor me, zacs. That's yet another problem. Hopeless.

It's not an answer for your Handmaid's Tale thread is it Naomi? If it is I'll go over and wait;-)

[naomi24]

THECORBYLOON, the health tourism thread in News. My attempt to respond to that appeared in the answer box here.

[naomi24]

Still not watched the latest episode, LB. Bear with me.

[Zacs-Master]

It seems to happen after I’ve looked at / made comment on 4 or 5 other posts.

[woofgang]

yes it was soo slow here over the weekend

[THECORBYLOON]

The answer count on the Health Tourism thread is out by one so there won't be a third page produced until there are forty-two answers.

I answered a crossword question the other day when the gremlins struck. My answer appeared 5 mins after someone else had answered.
Looked like I was copying. Felt a right nana.

[Zacs-Master]

'Course you did spicey.' 'Course you did. ;)

[naomi24]

spicerack, I shouldn't worry about that if I were you. Some people post duplicate correct answers hours after the original has appeared. I've never understood why.

[Spicerack]

I've seen that, Naomi. Weird, innit.

[Zacs-Master]

I think what happens is, people see the post in latest with a name at the side of it. If they then click on the post and see that person is the OP, they assume no one has answered when in fact the OP is just thanking people. Done it meself and felt a bit daft.

//Some people post duplicate correct answers hours after the original has appeared//
same goes for duplicate questions, do they not know how to use the search box?
