Concatenation of Posts
April 21, 2016 at 6:46 pm
Powers that be,
A while back I posted to two different people consecutively in the same thread, with nobody posting between my posts, and the forum concatenated my posts. What did I do wrong?
Thanks,
Shadow_Man

It's by design if you post in quick succession.

This is actually a pretty good thread! I thought the OP was throwing around big words just for fun.
IMHO, the concatenation tribute is a good thing regardless of veterancy (is that a big word, too?).

It used to be that all members got the horizontal rule [ hr ] between consecutive posts but within the edit window. We changed it because people wanted to respond to different posts in a thread without having the posts merged, among other things.
I hope that made sense, I am nearly delirious from lack of sleep.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

ignoramus,
Thanks for the prompt and helpful response.
Thanks to Cthulhu and SteelCurtain as well. I would have responded to each of you separately, but the posts would likely have been concatenated anyway.
Regards,
Shadow_Man

SteelCurtain,
Crap! At what time or number of posts will this concatenation thing stop?
