Would it be possible to check if a new message is the exact same as the message before it? So that the same user can't accidentally post the same message more than once. It happens so often ...

tbh it doesn't bother me at all.

When I was with my TISCALI {who are useless}

It happened all the time but that was because of the connection kept going wrong

Please do not make a delay as it will make conversatiions very slow unless it is not a long delay.

IME it is a problem with connection

Would probably be fine at say 2 secs or less ! Some threads flow v. fast...

There is a way to top double posting by making sure there has to be a minimum time lapse between a person making posts, say a few minutes. I'm not sure how it works, but tech should know.

Will put this to tech team and we'll let you know.

Blimey, that's a simple and excellent idea.
