I've seen a lot of double posts of late, and i have fallin into the trap a few times as well.

Instead of editing the post "oops" "pekka, double post...fix this" "darn double post". It's easier to just delete the second post. That way, no one ever even knows it happened ;-)a.

That is all, carry on.

Mods will delete douple posts when they see them. Unfortunately, if someone posts something after your double post, you can no longer delete it. When that happens, PM one of us and we'll do it for you.


I'm not short. I'm concentrated awesome!

Unless the internet connection is slow you should have time to delete it. Thats all i'm sayin

Sometimes double (even triple or more) posts are considered useful.

Remember this?

DON'T CLICK on that link! You will get sucked in, and bring that post alive again. It deserves to stay dead.

You can find "wise" in the infamous Tom_W and John_T thread.
