Something I noticed, forms don't expire on this forum, so you can accidentally resubmit a post that you submitted already, among other things.

Could that be fixed?

Just pretend you're doing it for additional emphasis? Like typing in ALL CAPS.

What I'd really like to see, for those of us who Tab - Enter to post a message, is to NOT have the "Logout" button suddenly move into the first position after the text box on the edit screen.

Post -> tab -> enter -> view
Edit -> tab -> enter -> logout

It's annoying.

No. Just stop hammering the submit button.

Plural? Really?

There's this thing called a "mouse" that's been making great strides in the computing industry in recent years... wink

I can see that it makes sense for some people to see who they're logged in as, and that having a logout option next to your account reminder is the most logical place. However, as you then have to scroll down to gain access to the posting controls, I can't see that there's much to gain from removing it. You'd still have to scroll to get to the text entry box.
