IIMSS: Stop Hitting the Submit Button More Than Once

#1 Postby NFLnut » Tue Aug 31, 2004 6:26 pm

If I may say on behalf of the forum owners (and they may delete this message if they feel it's not appropriate) it would help greatly the demand on the server if posters wouldn't hit the "Submit" button again and again. It is obviously taking more time than normal for a post to go through. Therefore, as I have noticed, the page will appear to hang longer than you are accustomed to under "normal" circumstances. Pressing "Submit" a second time doesn't speed things up and actually often ends up posting your message twice.

Also, when your message has posted and you see the screen which states "Click Here To See Your Message," clicking will actually often end in double-posting. It's best to wait for your message to refresh and appear on its own.

It would be a great help I know to help reduce server load as all of us who are in the forecasted track are nervously trying to keep up with the latest news. That way we'll all have access to this great and informative forum.
