Ever wonder why you or other people are posting duplicate replies to topics? I mentioned this in a Forum Complaints thread in the Association Business forum, but I'll repeat it here for anyone who's curious.

I figured out that my occasional double-posts were due to using the browser's "Go Back" (<b>&lt;-</b>) function after posting a reply--for example to get back to the Active Topics list. In that situation, Go Back takes you to the screen confirming your post, and that's when it happens.

The solution: Don't do that. Click <b>Active Topics</b> to get back to that list (which will show you any updates including yours). Of course, if you do double-post, you can one of them.
