Why is there no 'update' on these problems from the Admins? It would be nice if the problems were at least acknowledged.

I just tried to post and got an "Internal Server Error". Opened another window and found the post had gone through.

Yep, have had that happen to me several times. The post has always posted.

It turns out that you don't have the option, for whatever reason, to delete a post in that forum. So, if one of your posts is duplicated you can either leave it be or notify one of the administrators.

Not true.
You get 24 hrs to edit your posts, which I usually do.
In the edit mode you have an option to delete that post, and note it only deletes the one copy.
I do however agree that it is a PIA.

I was speaking of the Friendly Politics forum where self-deletion isn't available. See http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/friendly-politics/347995-peaceful-religious-sect-has-struck-10.html beginning about post #91.
