I won't say anything. I'm just glad that I missed the spamathon. *phew* :(
AppleQueso:
Glad I don't get email notifications for new threads.

(speaking of... guys I'm still getting emails from people about registration issues. I'm not an admin at all anymore, so it's pretty pointless for me to get those still since I can't do a damn thing about them. They're filling up my inbox all the time and getting kind of annoying. If someone could fix that I'd appreciate it)

Im really not trying to attack you here but I'm guessing you have 1000+ posts that are either double posts or reporting an almost identical thing with an "update".  What the other admins are saying isn't unjustified it's just reading text on the Internet somehow is always misconstrued to be aggressive.

I usually don't forum patrol a whole lot but my next day I may be doing some spring cleaning in the forums ...

Actually I use my home computers only, the problem is that we have 10 or so things consuming band width and internet connection cuts off all the time.

But I will start behave better from now on.

Trying to edit this post internet failed twice!  >:(
Doesn't do that when posting only editing
That's why I really don't like editing my posts.

But still do my best not to double post from now on.  :)

Probably they saw that the poster was admin, and I kept the explanation topic in the front page all the time.

What you need to do, then, is before you click "Post" when you're editing, copy the entire post into your clipboard (Ya know, highlight, right-click, "Copy") and THEN submit the edit. That way, if the edit doesn't go through, you can just try the Edit button again, and paste the revised post back in. I know it's a pain to re-type posts when an edit fails, but if your computer does it so often, then take the necessary preemptive measures to avoid re-typing edits instead of posting multiple posts.

Glad to know you guys are on it. Tiktektak already knows this, but being someone who's on the forum 24/7, I treasure this forum, and I'd hate to see it go into any sort of decay. If you guys need any help with this clean sweep, you've got a ready and willing recruitee right here.  ;)

Good to know! I'm sure The TCP forums will reward you with a collective "Thanks" for your efforts. :P

Hitting back button is enough to save the post.
It's not my computer but DSL modem that crashes under heavy use, and resetting it takes 5+ minutes.
Don't know why editing screws it put posting doesn't. Might be that for editing it has to first download the previous text computer. ???

Sneaky way of asking Forum Admin privileges!  ;D
