Please stop "mini spamming"

Post by erikleeson »

Ok lately I have been seeing an increase what I refer to as, mini spamming. This is mainly multiple posting and posting on threads from several years ago. I'm just going to stay please pay attention to date and try and only post new posts on the first page of the forum. As for the multiple posts, this is usually a common computer mistake, but it would be appreciated if you just posted the thread once, and waited a day, its common for you to not get any posts in the first little while, but there is no need to post the same post over and over again. If these people who shall remain nameless are doing this mini spamming deliberately, then I suggest Wai or someone else take action.

I already reported it to the mods. They should take appropriate action as they see fit. #D -.-

Browser problems may lead to double posting eg. You press Submit, but the browser doesn't do anything, so you press Submit again, then you see two copies of your post! Please delete one of the two posts; this is why I gave everyone the permission to delete their own posts.

I've noticed something too. Sometimes it won't post my posts. I'll go back to the thread, and my post isn't there. I don't know if it's the site or my browser. :S

I would never recommend someone use Firefox if they don't want it. I am sure it is nothing to do with IE, it is the site having problems. I personally don't like firefox and love IE so it is a preference so don't tell people to get firefox especially if they don't want it.

Ok, I'm just saying it might be the browser because it often is. I find that Opera and Firefox work on Youtube and other flash videos better compared to IE, so I just made a suggestion.

Again, its an opinion and I'm allowed to express it. Who said that they didn't want firefox on this thread?

No one said they didn't want it but they didn't ask either for your recommendation or anyone else's recommendation on what to use. If they ask then you can recommend it. I didn't see anyone ask for a recommendation so I would not have recommended using a different browser unless they specifically ask.
