Default New users double posts etc...

For a few weeks now in the ES - 5th Gen (2007-2012) forum, many new users post their first posts and then repost the same post a few minutes later. Is this a system problem, maybe the posters don't see their first post and think it went awry and feel compelled to repost a second time?? a few examples

Also there is a sudden spate of wrong forum posts with questions on GSs, LSs, ES300, etc. Is there something which defaults any new questions to the ES - 5th Gen (2007-2012) forum?

Thanks for reporting

I suspect it may be the new 'ask a question' feature. I'll ask that it get looked into!

I think it's because new users posts don't appear until a moderator approves.... So they can't see it, and they try again.

That only happens in rare circumstances when set off by a URL or phone number or spammer IP address match for new user. This is definitely due to the 'ask a question' feature that appears when someone is not logged in... The tech folks are aware and working on it.

Thanks, I'm not a spammer (promise!), but I'm all set now. Thanks for the super fast response.
