Funny stuff

Postby OneLungMcClung » Wed Jun 27, 2007 1:12 am

Some weird stuff happened tonight - I was spamming the forums with witty and drunken posts (as is required by membership at the BFC), and there were huge delays. I would click enter or post or whatever, there would be a huge delay, ADD would kick in, I would klick again, and nothing. One time I got logged out of the BFC, and I made a double post another time that didn't appear until I closed my browser and reopened to the BFC. I noticed 2 other double posts.

What is this? Net traffic? A glitch in the system? Massive porn downloading by a member? Government surveillance? Hackers? Agents, like in the Matrix?

It is the default action of the POST variable in html. It is fault tolerant so a refresh will post it twice.

Computers do what they are told and not what you want.

This happens to me as well...and others too. I often just delete double posts for convenience and to hide the shame of others.
