mguerra Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 Sometimes when I create a reply to a post, a notification box pops up saying something to the effect: "Someone has already replied, you sure you want to?" For crying out loud, GET RID OF THAT!!!! Of course we want to reply, that's the whole point of a forum... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdbower Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 Re: Annoying Feature I believe the feature is there to warn you that someone replied to the thread while you were typing out your own reply, it gives you a chance to read the thread at the bottom of the edit page to see if someone's already posted your response. On some really active forums I see a lot of nearly identical posts within minutes or seconds of each other - this feature can prevent that.

mguerra Posted April 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 Re: Annoying Feature If two people post similar replies in rapid succession, I don't see that as a problem... that requires a "warning". Seems like a solution in search of a problem. Let's don't turn this in to the over-regulated Primo forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conodo12 Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 Re: Annoying Feature that requires a "warning" Call me crazy (and many people do) but isn't a "warning" much more harsh than a friendly note advising you that someone posted a reply, while you were typing yours, and maybe you should check out that post in lieu of being redundant? See?!? We're not Primo here - just friendly advisory guys/gals! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mguerra Posted April 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 Re: Annoying Feature It was not me that called it a warning. I no longer care about this, let's talk about cooking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisLinkletter Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 Re: Annoying Feature I've never seen this message.. And can't find it in the Admin. but I have posted rather lengthy replies only to later see that someone else answered before me and said the same thing.. in hindsight it looked lame, like I read what they said and parroted it.. Wish I would have seen the notice that day.. I did go back and edit the redundancy out of my post.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
