Hi Robert

Your one step ahead on ALL those posts !!! to asoflamarz :lol: :lol: :lol:

But we said the same thing.... If only we had a way of KNOWING when someone else is actually replying to someone else, this would save this from happening!

:lol: :lol: That just shows you how busy I am at work!

I've noticed before that people have posted ahead of me when I preview posts I make, and then have to edit them again.

if posts have been made while your typing you should be notified before you post is submitted, may be a slight hickup somewhere not that i would know, knowing nothing about computers apart from where the on button is :oops: , it always used to work.............

There's nothing wrong in having overlapping posts, it adds confirmation to the initial answer.

Dean is quite correct, another new post whilst you're replying WILL flag up before
you confirm your post. Gives you a chance to 'hone' the reply/relevancy/content!

Anyhow, isn't it good forum practice to "Preview" a new post to see if there are
any potential typo's or grammatical errors as well as allow the software to show
a preview of ALL the posts on the thread you're adding to...

PLUS it sometimes allows the cull of an eccessive use of screamers (!!!!!)

Dieselman - irregular posting can sometimes confuse as well as amuse where the
sequence is out of sync. :)
