Duplicated Posts

There seems to be an epidemic of duplicated posts around at the moment, in a number of sections. One has four threads running at once! Can't HQ sort this ongoing problem out, or at least try and merge the threads, or close duplicates down with an explanation? Even if the cause is beyond curing, it at least needs managing so that duplicates are not left to go on and on. Come on HQ, give FB a rest for a while, and show some dedication to this forum! A twice daily check would help!

I think you and I must have double/treble/quadruple vision, TDA, because this cannot be happening. Rowena told us the other day that the problem of duplicate new threads had been fixed. That was just before the situation got worse.

Honestly, 8 months and it's still a rubbish site! Why did the club waste their time, effort and money on this? Correction, our money! You and I are very well aware that far better software exists off the shelf than this pathetic excuse for a forum and website. Heads should be rolling.

Well the way I  go in through Club Together latest activity etc pages there are up to 5 of the same title, more from earlier dates. My example fatbelly post Freshwater East 21 August 5 new discussions timed at 1943, 3x 1947,1948 as start times. This is someone who uses the forum so not new. Is the system duplicating or too many presses?

I'm not sure the link below will work but I'll leave it as I might lose the whole post 😲

Yesterday I was informed by the site by hanging and wrong way signs eventually that I was logged out so re logged in and posted again. These days it leaves your post and I always copy to the clipboard before pressing reply 😉. So without checking I posted again. Guess what double reply. Now that doesn't happen does it? It's been fixed.......

With duplicate threads each one can be answered and they appear to be interchangeable.  You can be on one with Y answers and hit page before or after and have fewer answers. Something is definitely very wrong 😉

I'm glad that wasn't a duplicate post B2, the web site would soon be scuppered. laughing  At present I look in someone's profile if they have duplicated posts to find their original post and stick  to the first one.

Sorry I couldn't delete the last link. I expected to be able to paste what I could see. LOL HAHAHA. Just click on the http link.

Well... what can one say! I daren't click your link Bakers. Yes, lots of Freshwater East posts, others elsewhere as well. (And no, I won't be searching for them, someone elsewhere gets paid to do that job surely!)  The forum seems to be playing up badly at moment, even by its own bottom dredging standards, very slow, I didn't recognise my log in details, duplicate posts.....

Ok, we know the chosen software is by Poundstretcher, but some routine cleaning up would help at the moment. I understand the mods are stretched as well, those still around, and have limited functionality, so it really is down to some HQ input, and perhaps not just Rowena, who probably has other duties as well?

Very sensible brue. But others don't so there's replies on them all sometimes 😂😂😂. Even doing that doesn't resolve it. I've been on threads - title escape me, where I think I'll follow this through and the next page either back or forward it will go from say 9 posts to 2 posts.

Definitely an issue 😲

I must say this site has taught me much from IT to patience with a bit of our hobby thrown in 😃

Last night I couldn't get in at all. No message. Just site unavailable.  Was something going on? Will we ever know??

To be honest although it's sensible it is also ridiculous. Since we are now awash with complaints about duplication it has all got totally out of hand.

Maybe the site is monitored by others than the mods? Maybe we'll get a response and the issue will be passed on and weeks later we might get an IT response via third party. I've woken up now 😂
