So, the VB button with PHP didn't cause a duplicate?

Well, no. I guess it's the VB button.
Still, while this is suggestive, it really doesn't apply to the other forums. However, the fact that Chit-Chat seems to be alone in the fact that you don't get duplicates should be a pretty solid clue.
Considering that posts don't count in the Chit-Chat, it should give us a clue.

In at least one way, I do appear to have poisoned the Post Race. Perhaps somebody else can confirm this:
I am now seeing a very large number of those PHP error lines at the top of the page when I go to Post Race. More than I see on any other thread. I also note that all the duplicates in this thread have been retained. What I'm thinking is that the PHP error lines are not a separate issue from the duplication, but are part of the issue. The fact that there are now several duplicate posts in this thread, and the fact that they have not been cleaned up, is the reason for all the PHP error lines.
However, if nobody else is seeing the PHP error lines, then I may be off track on that. I don't remember seeing any before I started messing with this duplicate thing. Now there are 12 lines permanently visible at the top of the page.
HA! There are six duplicate posts on the page I'm seeing for the Post Race, which starts with post #63401. There are 12 PHP error lines. When I go back to the last page, there is only one duplicate, and that page has only 2 PHP error lines. Therefore, there are twice as many PHP error lines as the number of duplicate posts (in case any of you are math challenged).
I believe we can fill the page with PHP errors by getting enough duplicates onto the page, but somebody has to confirm the observation of the PHP errors at the top of the page.
I also see 12 PHP errors. And I have noticed the number of those errors is not stable.
So, if I am right, then this should result in 14 PHP errors:

Yep, there are now 14!!
omg - Post Race showed a true purpose just now. This is historic - I simply am in awe!
Funny how we can debug the website issues by using the Post-Race!
Post race having a purpose?! We're living in a post post race world.
Well, you know what they say about an infinite number of monkeys typing on a typewriter will accomplish, so it was actually inevitable. :pQuote:

That is truly Planet of the Apes!
And here I always thought that most theories of the universe end with 42!
Well, looking a little further down the page, I saw a few hits did say infinite number of monkeys, so that is probably the way I heard it 50 years ago when I was just a kid. Didn't have the presence of mind then to think that an infinite amount of any substance would by definition fill all space so is an illogical supposition. One monkey with an infinite amount of time would be all you need, and would be sustainable.
