Lol. Has this ever happened to you? Merit sent again after refreshing.

I'm getting old: there are now Legendary users who just discover the flaws in the Merit system that were discussed shortly after it was introduced:

Occasions where the same user merited the same post twice at the exact same time
26 posts received the same number of Merit from the same user in the same second. This is caused by double clicking the Send button:

I am getting old too but as far as I know, we are not talking about the same thing. Your quote talks about double clicking the Send button, and I am talking about having refreshed (or reloaded if you prefer) the page. Not about meriting the same post twice at the same time but after a while.

Although I wouldn't be surprised if you've talked about exactly that elsewhere in some of your many posts.

So, i had the tab with my merit history open and I don't know how I refreshed the page...

And I wouldn't say it's a flaw either, it's more of a curious thing.

Double clicking or reloading the page both had the same result. It's actually the reason theymos implemented the 60 second delay, but that doesn't stop all cases as you found out.

You're looking for this topic:

I don't really understand how this can happen. Browsers are supposed to warn you before resubmitting POST forms.

Not really. If you see the OP's image, there is a difference of less than a minute but between two different posts. The merit that I sent to the same post when refreshing the page is about 7 minutes apart from the other.

I just tried to do the same and couldn't, even waiting for longer than 1 minute (I gave you two merits but because I tried twice separately).

I would lock the thread but this is Meta, I don't think it will last long here without being locked if there isn't some meaningful discussion going on.

Edit: I think what has been said is enough. Locking it.

[skarais]

If you feel this topic deserves to be locked, then go for it. But this is meta, keep it open for a while as maybe some user want to share their experiences.

About me, so far I have not experienced it. I only consciously send them 2 merit on the same post, but instead of sending them 2 merit in 1 transaction, I try to send them 1 merit per transaction. I have to wait at least 60 seconds to be able to post merit on the same post, but it always shows a warning if I want to post before 60 seconds. But anyway, I didn't experience the same as you have so far.

I have not experienced this before, but I have experienced something strange on my profile. That day I opened my profile, but what I was seeing was a different username...

This is a weird situation. Are you certain that your computer tab was not opened to a different forum user and you came in to meet it? This for me is the only situation that can make you see a different username.
But you are an experienced forum user and would have been sure of what you were experiencing, and have to had been a major glitch on your account.

I am very certain, mate. I know it sounds a bit unreal because this is not the first time I've talked about this here, but it seems it's been neglected any time I've talked about it. I was even surprised by that situation. I don't know what to say if it wasn't some network glitch.
