Here’s a friendly OOC reminder you can post:

OOC Reminder

Hi everyone! Just a quick reminder when you’re posting on the forum:

Please only click the “Post” button once. Double-clicking or repeatedly pressing the button can create duplicate posts, even if nothing appears to happen immediately.

After clicking once, give the page a few seconds to process. If your connection is a little slow, it may take a moment for the post to appear.

Thanks for helping keep the forums tidy. Happy writing!

Commander Dr. Charlotte M. Kelley
XO USS ARK ANGEL

I think the double-posting is only one part of the issue. If this happens, the individual in question should quickly label one of them as a DEAD POST to minimize the split.

I also think this happens if you don’t reply to the latest post. Either by not paying attention to what post you’re replying to (you’re partway through catching up on multiple posts and see something you just NEED to respond to), or when somebody else posts while you’re writing. I know I get prompts if somebody posts while I’m writing, and then I save what I have and go check the latest post and reply to that.

Krys… do COs/XOs have the permissions to delete posts and/or rename other player’s posts as DEAD POST if they see them? Is this something we’d need to reach out to TECH for if a split post situation gets out of control?
