It seems every time I click the submit button GameSpot sends two messages, and then takes me back to the message screen where it states something along the lines of: "to prevent flooding, no user can something something" etc.

Having the same issues; it's very annoying.

Edit: See, it just did it again. Very lame.

Having the problem too. Accidentally posted 4 times because it kept saying that message and I thought it wasn't posting.

But yea, the error message is:

"Errors:

- To prevent flooding, no user can post more than 2 messages in a 1 minute period. Please wait and try your post again in 1 minute(s)."

I would just like to mention that this double posting error is now affecting the GS side of the shared forums with GameFAQ. Up until now, that area of GS was unaffected by these various posting bugs.

Just happened to me, but I did a triple posting.

Edit: And it did it again in this very thread. Seriously these glitches has been getting worse and worse recently.

When I post I get a server not responding error. This gives the impression that my post wasn't submitted even though it was, so people might try refreshing which could be one possible source of the double posting. I should also note that will my post was submitted and is viewable in the thread, the forum page icon doesn't have the pencil showing I posted in that thread. Okay, this time I got a flood error(user can't post more than 2 posts per minute) even though I haven't posted anything in the past minute. And it of course double posted. Things are very screwy.

It happened to me in a couple of unions a week ago. Now it's happening to me on every board. Annoying as hell.

Yep, it's been doing it all day for me. Horribly annoying.

And my posts aren't counting, so it's double posting and not even giving me credit for a post.

lol, are we getting two posts counted for our totals? That would be the only upside I suppose.

I also get the server not responding error. Learned from the unions and other times when this problem occurred that it is simply to go back and refresh(if one wish to see that their post has been posted.) That way you also just post once.

Also post count doesn't update I think.

Edit: Nah it doesn't update at all. 2nd Edit: Editing works fine.

That used to work until today. Now, once the blank screen appears, the double posts are already there. >_>
