    I keep getting the following message:

    The following errors occurred with your submission:
    This forum requires that you wait 30 seconds between posts. Please try again in 29 seconds.


    Is this something MSE can look into?

    I'm getting that, then its double posting if I submit again. Seems to be when I'm using the iPhone to post.
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    I am also getting this. Also noticed when I use quick reply the page refreshes and opens to show my new post. Instead of showing up on the page seamlessly without refreshing. Editing posts works as the latter so unsure why quick reply is triggering a page reload.
    Using chrome 30.0.1599.69 m not sure if this is a browser issue or MSE.

    +1 for iphone hazards. I'm catching them mostly...
  • Same here. Running Chrome latest version and Ubuntu. Wonder if it is an issue with Linux/MAC based systems as several reports iPad/iPhones as well?

    Nothing has changed today, still duplicate posts and the time error messages.

    Only time it doesn't happen is in the Compers Chat Corner.

    But try to add a message in IWIWIW, or on the main competitions board the issues occur.

    So I wonder if it's a formatting issue on MSE...

    I have this on my iOS 7 iPad. It happens with around 85% of posts - so annoying but nothing more!

    I am using the most up to date option of Chrome and the duplicate posts is not limited to just chrome browser either. That said it happens more frequently in Chrome. It makes no difference if it is a short message or a long message. On Saturday it happened only twice all day yet yesterday and today it as been awful. So much so it is happening every post. Has this is happening to multiple people it sure isn't an intermittent itch but something more. The question is does it happen on any other forums with these anti spam rules and of the 4 I am on that have it the answer is no.

    I am using Windows 7 64bit on Chrome Version 30.0.1599.69 m

    It's happened to me every time I've posted in this, which is in CCC :)
