I haven't been on since the changeover but am having no problems this morning at all. Everything is working the way it always did for me....wonder if there are some gremlins out creating those problems for people. :wink:

Sorry it happens to me all the time. The button on my computer double clicks sometimes. When I try to go back I'll go back 2 pages or when I delete mail I'll delete 2 posts then I have to go retrieve the extra one from the deleted mail file.Sorry.

I found out also that I was too impatient and kept cliking and had a post for every click.

Sometimes I can't even get to the "reply" button. I am not complaining, though, because I have been doing other things while I wait. Even got my desk in front of the computer sorta cleaned off. Note "sorta".

Ditto! I only click send once and wait...I did once or twice hit send again, and it posted double. Sorry for that. Now I just hit is once and wait. It will post

I am happy to be patient and wait. We had an upgrade to our servers at work a while back and lost everything!!! We fought for a couple of days before we were running right and then had to manually update a lot!!! There are always "glitches". I am just so happy to have found this group of wonderful friends that a little wait is okay. It will get better. I have noticed that if it is a loooonnnggg wait sometimes if I hit "refresh" it gets to where I want to be.

Click send, then watch the status bar down at the bottom of your screen (if you have it enabled), right above the task bar. It will show the status of the message being posted. If you see the bar moving, it's "working", so don't hit "send" again. Just be patient. I know, I posted something THREE times yesterday because I wasn't watching.

I think the slow progress of the forum has people impatient and thinking the send button didn't work the first time, they click on it a second time.

The uptake has been so slow that it leads one to believe that the send button didn't work, so they hit it again. Sure wish they would get things speeded up a little.
