There are occasions when I feel that two posts are needed, and the damned thing merges them into one. I've seen it on another sites too, it is the spawn of the devil.

Unless you've got a serious problem with people spamming their post count up, I can't see the point of it. On most boards it'll just confuse people. It's hard enough getting people to understand web forums at the best of times.

Worse still, on here, it leaves an edit note telling the world you double posted by mistake! No I didn't!

Grrrrr!!!!!

Its done to keep spamming in non hack threads down, as well as bumps before their time.
