I wanted to put this out there in case other contributors were experiencing something similar. Sometimes when I post in a thread or on a review, my post/comment is duplicated within a second or so. For me this has happened on: a tablet (Chrome); iPhone 4 (Safari); and my new laptop (Chrome).
I feel embarrassed each time this happens because I can't delete the duplicate post/comment.

Even my aplacas have had a duplicate post. I like to think that hopefully everyone understands that you're not doing it on purpose and can't undo the glitch. I mean, it's not like you're posting twice everywhere you go, in which case it would be intentional.
As POP said, refreshing the page in Chrome does cause this to happen - there was a big discussion about it at the St Pat's party, I believe, because people were accidentally triple or even quadruple posting when they refreshed the page. The first time that it happened to me, when I was newer, I went so far as to flag my own post because I was so frustrated that I couldn't figure out how to delete it. I mean, I know now that flagging should be reserve for things a bit more serious than accidentally double posting, but I think that it happens to a lot of people, especially those who browse with phones, tablets and Chrome!
