Is there a way to implement such a feature here? It would be very useful when posting in extremely active threads that rely on order (*cough*threewordstory*cough*) |

Were you expecting something else?

It just doesn't alert you when you're actually submitting your post. |

More NEGATIVE than a black hole Group: ADMINISTRATOR Posts: 19,345 Member No.: 12,263 Joined: Sep 12th 2005 Location: Update Profile | The forum software does not allow for some sort of "live status" feature that would let you know if somebody posted while you were typing. The best way to know this, as Meteor stated, is to preview the post before you post it. This essentially refreshes the page to the most current version. You could also have the thread open in another tab/window, and refresh it. |
