Posting Issues / Technical Glitches

Do you want to talk about your beautiful country, family, or dog? Would you like to say where you went on holiday or how you arranged the garden? Are you willing to tell us you girlfriend left you for a(nother) loser? Do you have ANY non knife-related topic you want to discuss? This is the place!

Posting Issues / Technical Glitches

Post by Killgar »

I haven't seen it mentioned, so I will. For the past several days it seems like every time I go to submit a post I get some kind of message telling me the action was denied, that I don't have the necessary privileges to post, etc. If I ignore those messages, and just hit the back button, and click on "Board Index" I will then see that my post was in fact posted.

I believe this issue is causing people to unintentionally post multiple identical posts. It happened to me before I figured out the workaround.

Anyways, just thought I'd mention it.

EDIT: For whatever reason it didn't happen when I submitted this post.

Is there a ghost in the machine, maybe voodoo, could be gremlins; better call ghost busters. Or would a reboot fix it?

It just happened to me. My phone screen went white. TB’s web address was in the address bar. I tapped go. It took me back to TB. I saw my comment was posted and just below it was my comment waiting to be submitted again. I close the window and I launched TB, only one post appeared.

At least we all have something in common, besides knives.

If you get the error screen and refresh the page you get a double post.

If I close the error page and open the forum again it seems to only have a single post.

I post 99% of the time on a Chromebook laptop that uses the chrome browser. I don't know if it is a browser problem.

Are most of you posting with phones?

Same here. Think maybe PB is haunting us?
