If a person replies to a thread, a new 'reply' shows up.  And, if that same person replies again (with another, or 2nd, 'reply") to the same thread, but before any other member replies after their first reply, then the 2nd reply is appended to the 1st reply in the same reply box.  This makes it appear like the two different replies are in fact only one (now longer) reply...like the 1st reply was 'edited' to add the 2nd reply to the first reply.  There really isn't any delimiter which separates the two replies, and there should be.  This is confusing to the reader, especially if the 2nd reply is to a different poster than the 1st reply.

Often times I might reply (separately) to two different posters in a thread.  But if no one replies to the thread before my 2nd reply, then the 2nd reply and the 1st reply wind up looking like they were combined into a single reply.  It also annotates the 1st reply with an 'edited on xxx' text in the header (which is incorrect).  In other words, if I make 2+ rapid fire replies, they show up as one reply.

I have had to insert multiple line spaces and a dotted line (i.e. "------------------------------------------------") to separate my two replies because it's such a pain and so confusing.  But there's even some more...

This erroneous functionality isn't consistent either.  Sometimes a 2nd reply will actually display correctly as a two different/separate replies each with it's own textbox, but not always.  What seems to drive a reply showing separately, or combined, is the amount of time which elapses between the 1st and 2nd reply.  I haven't tried to zero in on what this countdown clock is set to, but it's definitely more than just a couple minutes.  As noted above, I try to delimit the replies with a dotted line to separate them, but when a reply does in fact display correctly, then there's this unexplained dashed line at the top of my 2nd reply (for no real reason) which I have to edit out to delete.

I think I have brought this same issue up previously.  Would really appreciate someone looking into a fix for this, because it looks pretty bad.

MUCH appreciated...Thanks!!

ETA - Sorry for the long explanation, but I have tried to be as succinct and descriptive as possible, because I figured my earlier post must not have been clear or did not explain the problem adequately.  So, I have tried to 'over-explain' it here (if anything) in hopes it can be addressed and resolved once and for all.  I have seen this same behavior on other websites, and after mentioning it the issue went away, so I'm confident there is a fix for this same issue here too.

(8 hours ago)FCD Wrote: Firefox on a Windows 11 box.  (pretty vanilla.  Everything is up to date.  No blockers running other than OEM FF.  No Add-ons running.  Cookies and caches all dumped and cleared out at the end of every browser session.  Full virus scans every 24 hrs, and active scanning on.  Clean login every session here.)

I think you can replicate the problem (anyone can).  Just make two rapid fire replies to a test OP, and you'll see it too, and see what I mean.  From what I can see, it happens to everyone who makes two quick replies in a row (two replies intended to be separate replies).  It does not appear to be a user related issue.

I observed this same behavior on MPP several months back.  I brought it up to them and they were able to correct it right away leading me to believe it was just a simple config change.  I have put out an inquiry over there asking what the fix was so I could share it here.  If/when I get a response I will post it here.

Thanks!

ETA - I also have Opera, Chrome, and Edge (yuck!) available, so I can test across those three if you like, but I wouldn't anticipate anything different on those platforms.
