I get the flooding message every once in a while.... Almost every post I do, I get a rejection saying I have invalid HTML commands in my post (I dont use HTML commands). Sometimes I get in a hurry and scroll down right away to click post again, then I get the flooding message. It states that I just clicked Post less than 3 second before.

 

The flooding message is to alert you that you cannot post a lot of posts quickly. The board software prevents that to keep down spam on boards. Not a bug.

 

BTW I use IE9 and I know that part of the problem is IE9 is not totally compatible with the board software. It happens.

I too have occasionally gotten that flood posting error message on my phone. I know I only pressed the post button once as well. Whenever I see it, I will use the back button to return to the main page of the section I was in.

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

I get this EVERY TIME I post now!!! It's so annoying. I have to post everything twice. I said something about this in a post on the iPhone 4 forums, but no one mentioned anything.
