    Automerge double posts

    One of the other forums I use has implimented an automerge post addin.

    It would stop people from racking their post count by repeatedly posting at the bottom of the same thread, would also prevent the spamming from tommy2 last night.

    Just a thought

    It's because of people like you spamming every thread, that new members have to have 5 posts outside of the welcome member area to post links...

    Does it also kick in if you're trying to bump a thread? Such as a FS thread where you were the last one to post?

    Re: Automerge double posts

    Over on another vbulletin based forum I use, it wont let you post an exact copy of the post you've posted in the last 5 minutes, although it might be a modification or just an option in the admin cp, it's a good idea
