I just ran into a bug that returns an error 400 while posting. Trying to submit again results in a duplicate message.

Seems like @braddick may have run into the same bug this morning.

    No idea why it's doing that.

    Hopefully I've avoided that. Instead of leaving the threads up or changing them to DELETE, I converted them to something else. One of them is this thread ;)

    What I suspect is happening: the first post succeeds in creating the new discussion but is returning a 400 error so the JavaScript is likely indicating an error. Because the feedback is indicating an error, you re-try. Whatever was causing the 400 error doesn’t trip and everything looks fine but two posts were actually created. Since it’s indicating a validation exception it could be that something expected didn’t get set correctly or checked correctly. There will probably be a board software update to fix it at some point.

    It's been happening to me all day.
    I just hit back and it goes through anyway.

    Just updated a PCGS Sample thread - hit save, got the error, cancelled it and reopened the thread - my revision was saved.

    I got lucky & ran into it on the "Testing" forum tonight. Each time I hit submit, the error message popped up. No way I figured that the posting was made. I think I ended up with 6 or 7 duplicate posts there.

    Successful BST transactions: EagleEye, Christos, Proofmorgan,
    Coinlearner, Ahrensdad, Nolawyer, RG, coinlieutenant, Yorkshireman, lordmarcovan, Soldi, masscrew, JimTyler, Relaxn, jclovescoins, justindan, doubleeagle07
