Now I've been having my share of problems with myLot quite a lot as of late. The latest problem seems to be double entries of comments I make. I can't see how that happens to me as I try my best to send them correctly. HahAHa! Not always mistake free but anyhow.... Has anyone else had the problem of their posts,comments, or responses being submitted & posted twice? Also I've had 3 incidents so far of email notification problems. I won't get any emails for the day then in the evening or early morning hours I get 50 or more at once. Grrrr!!!!! Happy postings from Grandpa Bob

I have seen this on a few postings. It has not happened to me but I was kind of wondering why there was so many duplicate discussions. Today was the first time I noticed it maybe because I saw it happen more then one time. I just kind of chocked it up to people not knowing what they were doing.

Yes the emails are a problem sometimes as I have replied to some of my discussions long before i get an email saying a friend has replied to mine. And yes they do seem to come in one go instead of as they have just been commented on so as to spread them evenly.

Yeah I'm starting to get accustomed to the same deal with having responded before I know via email they started that very discussion I'd just responded to. That's kind of funy at times too. Gotta Love technology though. Happy postings from Grandpa Bob

i have had a little of the double entry problem. It usually happens when i don't think a post has gone through because of some interruption ont he internet. i look and see the response is not there, so i re-type it. Sometimes i will see the original post adfter posting the second one.

It is called, Oops. I have done it too. I think it can happen to everyone. sometimes my computer gets stuck, and i hit the thing again, and then it comes out twice. I try to be more patient. It still can happen though

i have nto had such a problem. btu i have had problems of a discussion being posted twice. then you ahev no way of deletign the thigns you have written, neither the comments nor the discussions. that i feel is a major drawback and a handicap. i een made a mistake of uploading a wrong photograph but had no way of mending the error, you feel like a fool then...

Double posting can happen when you press the button several times, or if you refresh the page before it send your post. When you press on the "Post response" button, you must wait several seconds, and then you will see your response.

I've quite often had the situation where my posts appear twice, but it's realy not a problem, as MyLot delete them pretty quickly! In my case I know it's because my server is quite slow, and sometimes I hit the button twice because I think the first attempt just hasn't got through. I only had the email thing once though, and that was when there was a general fault and it was happening to everyone. Have a good day!

I also had the same problem but i think that mylot people delete one entry if you by mistake make more then one entry same as before.

I'd be thinking it's just a mylot glitch - have you emailed them to let them know it's happening?? I personally haven't had it happen to me yet *fingers crossed* but I've seen a few responses to discussions that I've started that are doubled up but as they are typed exactly the same way and majority are under 500 posts so they can't copy and paste I know that it's not just an exercise to try and boost their numbers. I haven't had any problems receiving emails but I have heard that if you are using a free client [yahoo, gmail, hotmail etc] to receive your emails there may be a delay.

No I don't use the freebie emails. I have my AOL. I haven't emailed them as I just live with it. I keep paper handy at the desk so I can write things down as I do them for my own recall. HAHAHA. Gives me more to do is all. HAHAHA.

I double commented once and yesterday when I was posting a discussion it didn't look like the first one went thru so I retyped it and added an image and when I went to the discussion page it was there twice! As far as the email goes do you leave your email browser open while brining up another page for mylot? That's what I do and if the email broswer is open the new emails won't show up until you refresh the broswer of resign in to your email. Try refreshing....Thanks grandpa bob!

Nope I have AOL & I use their web browser. SO when an email arrives I have to open my mailbox. Its a screwy system sort of. Thanks though I apreciate it a lot. HAHAHA.

Yes its a glinch in mylot and Im quite sick of it. Its been 4 days now for me not getting any of my emails and I have message them several times. They dont even get back to me. Dont you think they should let us know when they are having a problem. I mean we are the people who are making them money without us there wouldnt be no mylot.

I have had this happen before. One of my first discussions posted twice and it is frustrating looking at them still to this day. I sometimes know why it has doubled up and other times have no idea! Do not fret. Mylot knows this happens and I have never heard of anyone being warned about this.

I'm new but I have noticed a few duplicate discussions and replies. Sometimes if I reload the page the duplicates disappear. Not sure what is going on there!
