Thanks for the reminder and suggestions. We have all clubbed together to get the monies to hire a developer to have the SAVE button disabled after it has been pressed the first time. Hopefully they can implement it in the coming weeks.
This should solve the problem for those who are experiencing it.
As a moderator it is very tiresome to delete duplicate entries but Admin don't seem to bother about it.
In order to draw their attention to the problem last year I hit the save button as many times as I could to see how many duplicates I could create - it was 37 and I had made my point.
Someone in admin had to delete them all but all they did was give me roasting for doing it - didn't change a thing.

Shure it can be tedious, especially when people post a new thread several times and others post thir comments on different such threads.
To me it is more about following a single topic split on several discussions at the same time, everyone speaking at the same time, no doubt you both are doing a great job.
Good Luck

Yes -each time you click on the "save" button, the same message will be posted again.
I don't know if there is a technical fix for it, but that would be great. -90% or more of the time Mike and I spend moderating the site is deleting these duplicate postings. It can become quite tedious.

Hi Gary
Can the webmaster not include the words "please hit the save button only ones, and wait until the posting has been processed"?
