46724 2002-05-01 22:50:00 I only start coming here a week ago. I love this site and try to answer any questions that I know the answer to. one thing I have noticed though is multiple posts that are the same. the first time I came here I posted 2 identical posts. Just a thought, why don't you say somewhere (probably next to the post button) to only click the post button once, even if it doesn't seem to have done anything.

Just a thought.

If you do a search on multiple posts it returns 72.
So things havent changed.

We are all waiting with bated breath for the new Press F1 software which has been promised.

No-one seems to know why it takes so long for a posting to be loaded, so people click again to speed it up, or think it isnt working, that's one reason for multiples. It also seems to have a mind of its own.

Cheers.

If your print job hasn't arrived after 2.5 seconds, you just press the print button another 50 times to 'force it out'.

Every user know that. lol

Every ten or fifteen minutes, it runs through and updates the html version of the database. That is when it appears. Sometimes they appear quickly. Sometimes they don't.

Sometimes the whole thing has gone fubar and you get nothing. Pretty much like most systems.

The new system won't do this, I don't think.

robo.
