Every time you hit the 'post comment' button, it'll post whatever's in the cache. If you double-click the button (which lots of people do on web pages, it's why there are huge warnings at the bottom of online stores saying 'don't double-click, or you'll be billed twice'), you'll get two copies.
There are literally thousands of comments in this system now, from hundreds of people using a full spectrum of browsers/operating systems. I'm sure there are still glitches... but double-posting (on the server side) isn't one of 'em.

Lol, sorry you guys. Actually I read the HTML guid and I learned all I could. I will try harder next time I swear. Hey, its a series remember, I still gotta figure out how MC kills those damn marines. Oh and before I forget, I only entered my comment once and it came up twice. Same thing probably happened to scope. Also, this is my first Fan Fic story.

It frightens me that James felt he had to list the formatting available. (He did, obviously - just read the two Simsons Rule comments before his to see that - but it's frightening nonetheless.)
At the top of the submission form, in big bold letters, set off from other text, it says
"Directions for use (will pop up in a new window) READ THESE OR ELSE!"
This particular subsection of the site is populated by people who enjoy writing fiction. Presumably, that means they also read.
But an INCREDIBLE NUMBER OF YOU DON'T READ!
I can't tell you the number of people who've emailed in questions that are answered clearly in that document. How the HELL can I make you people read it? Does it have to be required reading before you can have access to the submission form? (That is, when you wanted to submit a story, you'd get the directions page; then you'd get a quiz, populated with random questions having to do with the directions page - different every time. Only after answering the questions would you get the submission form.)
You people depress me sometimes.

I'm submitting a list of html that you use in the document. Kinda self explanatory...
There are severel different HTML tags that you can use.
1. The Italics tags are[i]whateveryouwantinitalics[/i]. The second set is to close the italics tag so that the rest of the page isn't italicised.
2. Also you need [indent] tags. You just type this(with the marks around it) at the beginning of a new paragraph. No closing tags required.
3. And [b]whateveryouwantinbold[/b] tags. The second set is to close the bold tag so that the rest of the page isn't in bold.
4. Finally you have the [hr] tag. This puts a thin horizontal line acroos the entire piece that can be used to separate things.
Hope This Helps!

I tried indenting but every time I hit tab it moved down the page. I tried hitting the space bar six times and nothing. This is my first Fan Fiction Story and since I was very involved in The Megg search I found this fitting. Sorry if it doesn't meet the standards.

Where to start... You need new paragraphs for new speakers. Indent new paragraphs. The list goes on. I'm sure others will register their complaints.
