Getting Tired of This

Tuesday, September 15, 2009 by LightStar | Discussion: Stardock Support General

-  Could someone please tell me why my honorific at different parts of the site says Citizen, and why at other parts it says Journeyman, when it should be Journeyman everywhere?

-  Could someone tell me why everytime I post a comment on the site it always double posts?

-  Could someone tell me why when the double posts occur one says I am Citizen and one says Journeyman at times?

-  Could someone tell me as to why when I email [email protected] on these issues no one ever answers?

 

I am sorry to have to write about the lack of support, but you left me no other choice.

I have seen these things on occasion and really have never thought much about them.  I kind of think that some of these things that are happening might be because of the work being done to update the WC site, just a wild guess on my part. 

I also at times will get a double post but it usually happens when the forums are running slow or I don't think I hit the post reply button and hit it a second time.

If you are not getting a automatic reply to your email to support maybe it never made it or your spam filter 'ate it'.

yeah...the double posting is really annoying....I double post in the galleries.......it mucks up the pages too....I just a commented on skinhit's icons...#25....and it totally got swallowed up....had to leave another one  (#27)...

It's reduced my commenting...if I comment too many times on my own upload.....it can swallow up to 6 other comments...it happened the same day I got promoted....something else clicked over when they clicked me over....

Does it really matter? I see citizen when I open the site, on the messageboard I see nothing, I don't see anywhere where it says Master.

I don't see it as being all that important.

only site where my enter or tab button doesn't work

Enter = new paragraph
Shift + enter = new line

Works ok for me in FF3

I don't get double posts either. Maybe it's me who's special?

Same here, I've had double posts with the same # in the galleries for 12 months or more... it looks stupid so I rarely comment on skins these days, not that I've doenloaded may of late.

I have also had once or twice a double post and this is what I have notice: if I don't wait for all the stuffs above the text box (font, size, smiles etc) to load and I send the message before those were loaded then I have a double post. So now, if my connection it's bad I just wait for those to be loaded and only after that I press Post comment. It worked for me

I had the same problem a while ago and all it took was going into my setting from the home page and changing my honorific back to apprentice.  It has stayed just fine since then.

I have done that too, and it works for a ferw days and then starts all over again.  I just don't understand how I can have two different honorific's showing up at the same time on the site.

Does it really matter?

No it does not really matter Fuzzy, I mentioned it because it might be related to my double post comment issue and help someone find the problem. It is still a little annoying though. Evidently this is a problem for many users, and as they have stated, it has cut down on my commenting too.

Have you tried logging off and clearing cookies and cache?

Most of the time when I have the trouble you're discribing it's with FireFox and doing the above will clear it up for a while.

Different courses for different horses. In any case no one said it was 'important'

 

It is however quite annoying, in a 'problem that has been occuring forever and never gets any attn or fixed' way.

 

I assume it will all be fixed and forgotten when the new site is launched but how long is that going to be?

It's a site bug.  It doesn't affect your true status, it just displays the wrong title.  It does it even for me.

 

-  Could someone tell me why everytime I post a comment on the site it always double posts?

First guess would be browser issues.  I have logged in under your account and posted just fine.  I would suggest trying different browsers and firewall settings.

 

-  Could someone tell me why when the double posts occur one says I am Citizen and one says Journeyman at times?

That's not going to affect double-posting.

 

 

-  Could someone tell me as to why when I email [email protected] on these issues no one ever answers?

I have responded to you several times.  I would suggest checking your spam folder.

Thanks for responding ID.  I check my SPAM folder daily, nothing there at all.  Could you please send me an email and post here that you sent it so I can be sure of what's going on?
