Forum Software Malfunction - Posts Multiple Copies of Message

After I wrote my initial reply quoting @Caligamy_ESO : The main storyline has been broken since morrowind release I chose to edit it.

Evidently, each time that I edited my reply after it was originally posted as #4 in the discussion, the forum software sometimes posted the edit as another copy of the reply. I haven't seen that happen before, and I have no idea whether it can be reproduced, because I have no clue as to how that could have happened.

One thing that I can recall is that I was not aware of replies from other players which might have been posted to that discussion between edits of my own reply. But, examining the series of messages as it currently exists, apparently that was occurring.

By the way, ZOS needs to hire someone who knows what they are doing when they work on the forum software package. The top banner on every page is bad enough, but that wide black bar under it with the words "Categories", "Dev Tracker", "Recent", "Unanswered" and "Participated" is considerably larger than it should be. There's hardly any room left on the display of the page to read the index of discussions, then to read the content of the posts.

Or maybe you should leave it alone, since every time your people touch the software they're more likely to make things worse instead of better.
