Double Posts

[Nifft]

Is there an option to deliberately NOT merge posts? Those of us who do long handbook-style threads often want several posts in a row, and deliberately "reserve" posts when starting a thread.

Thanks, -- N

Just to update the thread.

I think, in his infinite wisdom, MM rethought this automerge thing.
Which was nice, because I'm short on sanity already and the whole automerge->massive mess was making me nuts on by PbP games.

I wrote this in the other thread, but I will say it here as well:

Why not make it WAY LESS than 24 hours? Can that be done?

Make it like 5 or 10 minutes. . . I don't see double posts beyond that time limit really ever being an issue.

If that's possible, five minutes would be really good.

Back when the board was not nearly as quick & responsive as it is now, I double-posted with half an hour in between.

5-10 minutes won't scratch my reserve-space itch.

Yeah. It's just not a good idea for some boards. There are a whole bunch of posts that I use for keeping track of campaign details and resolving problems where I'll post two or three times in five minutes.

Sometimes it's a back and forth, but sometimes I owe people answers and I'm just blasting it out.
