I only get them if I post very nearly to someone else, in terms of time.

But you can still make lots of posts - I find it is MUCH worse when connected by a very slow connection like a train WIFI or mobile broadband on 56k.

Loads.
I have a pretty good connection as well.
@ home
1.3mb upload / 8.7mb download
@ work
0.5mb upload / 2mb download
Had double posts on both connections to be honest, plus a few when using my phone.

The only time I've had them occasionally is when posting from a mobile device.
Never had one on the work PC or my laptop.

I have had one or 2, usually when posting from the iPad.
Its easier to delete it though. rather than to edit it to write "grrr double posts!!!!" lol

shame -- but be warned he will end up looking for some elsewhere

Get quite a few and am just as *competent* as hodgy ....
Got a good BB connections as well. I also get long delays when clicking a thread link sometimes. I either leave it to come up (could be a minute or so) or hit the big 'X' to stop the download and start again. Usually goes through second time around.
Please someone, get it sorted. It doesn't happen on other BBs that I go to ...
