So I recently merited this post . With 1 merit (or so I thought ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) ) Since I was on mobile for that time, and chrome has a feature where if you pull down on the screen while on a webpage, the webpage will refresh. When I accidentally did this, my page refreshed and the poster received 2 merits, not 1. Is there a possible fix for this? Is it a forum wide problem or just my phone? ~Zapo

Maybe you just double clicked the "send" button ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Maybe you touched "send" button when you were trying to refresh the page after sending 1 sMerit that's why it doubled the sMerit sent. There are already some Member here who experienced the same issue when sending a Merit. They said that maybe it's a bug or something, but the truth is they just clicked the send button twice. When you clicked send button and the page starts to load, although the page's loading didn't completed (due to slow internet) or it happens that you cancelled the page's loading after a minute, the amount of sMerit you entered in the textbox will still be sent.

After, you have given merit to a post, if you refresh the page same number of merits are given to same user again. For instance, you give 5 merits for a post and refresh the page, he will get 5 more merits. Though I am surprised that this is not fixed yet by the admin as it is a major bug in my opinion.

I'm sorry Mr. But I think you're mistaken. Though, you were right about the bolded part of your sentence. Its true that when you refresh the page after sending sMerit, sending sMerit will be repeated and the amount of sMerit you sent will be sent again. But, before it happens, a message box will appear first confirming that if you return to the to the page, your recently action (Sending sMerit) might be repeated. It will only repeat if you click "Continue" button and I think the OP didn't clicked it. He also didn't mentioned anything about this message box so it means that he didn't refreshed the page after sending sMerit. Maybe he just accidentally clicked the "send" button again. Because if he really refreshed the pages, the message box will appear. This is the message box I am talking about. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FvEzpmhG.jpg&t=665&c=GLN_REsNV0cVpg) Edit. Image resized, Thanks for reminding Mr @edwardceng.

It is not a glitch, it is because you refresh the page where you send merit. It is just the same like if you sending a login information and hitting the refresh button, the information will be sent twice. Some other think it as a glitch/bug too, but i guess it is normal since you refresh the page where you sent merit. Just be careful next time ad learn from this mistake. Many members had mentioned this problem when merit system was launched. After, you have given merit to a post, if you refresh the page same number of merits are given to same user again. For instance, you give 5 merits for a post and refresh the page, he will get 5 more merits.

This is the message box I am talking about.
No offense, better resize the image to make it look neater and no need to use the scroll to see the whole picture and the point is just about " Message Box". like this: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FvEzpmhG.jpg&t=665&c=GLN_REsNV0cVpg) [img width=330]https://i.imgur.com/vEzpmhG.jpg[/img]

EDIT : I was correct.You did send two merits one after the another.There is no glitch,lock the thread. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FOVnOWUZ.png&t=665&c=761BT51oQfzS_A)

It has been reported many times already. Refreshing the page will double send Merits and it is also possible to double-click the send button and do the same.

Maybe I'm missing on the 'reported many' part,mind linking me to one of those threads where this glitch is actively being discussed ? I thought the OP sent one merit after the other and just couldn't see it due to page refreshing stuff.Anyway,I don't know if this has been discussed before but I found something interesting while fiddling with the merit input box. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3292443.msg34351320#msg34351320

I did not click on the merit button more than once. Thanks for the links. ~Zapo
