Duplicate threads

[Gromit]

Is this a new trend or something? 

I've noticed three duplicated threads today, and I'm wondering if there's a glitch in the system causing members to think their first thread has vanished into the ether? 

It's obviously not good practice, as contributors won't be able to respond with follow-up suggestions when two or more threads develop in varying directions. It can become very confusing!

I had noticed this also Gromit but then also noticed that the members doing it were generally newcomers.
I don’t know what exactly I did but I was also guilty of exactly the same thing when I first joined a year ago!

You probably pressed the "Send" button twice.

If the "Send" does not go straight away, it is tempting to give it another click!
