What is "length required"?
Every once in a while, I'll post and instead of the post being accepted, that's what I get. It's extremely annoying and there seems to be no cure other than going back, copying the post, and waiting (a long time) to post it again. If you post again right away, it just says it again. At least now I know to go back and copy rater than lose the post and have to type the whole thing over again.

Not really sure--this is a new bug to me. What OS/browser are you using when this happens? Are the posts long or short?

Sometimes, because I'm a fast typer, I will go from one thread to the next and post twice in a short amount of time, and I get an error message saying that not enough time has gone by since my last post. Could that be what you are getting?

The wording is not the same as what I get, but...

Oh yeah, the beloved 30-second rule, John, LOL. I know it well, and that's not it.
It doesn't happen very often... I'm on a Mac with OSX; my browser is Firefox. The post was medium-size this time, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. It was my last post to Jaishi's thread.

That's what I use too but I've never had that problem (although I too am quite familiar with the 30 second rule too). Are you using the latest version of firefox? I haven't upgraded mine yet (since every firefox upgrade brings its own problems) so maybe that's it?

I'll spend some time with the firefox/mac OS combo tomorrow to see if I can replicate the error, although I'm also running an older version of the Mac OS, so it might not trigger for me. I know the forum in general doesn't seem to play nice with my version of safari on my phone.

No worries, Amie. It doesn't happen very often at all. Actually I was surprised yesterday, as it hadn't happened in ages. I was more curious to see if anyone else had run into that.

I realize now that this sounds like the subject of those Viagra SPAM emails that I get at work all day. LOL
