Someone Edited this thread. I don't remember my legato posted a video on Super Bomberman saying And also a longplay on Super Bomberman. Oh well.

The topic was edited to have the double, triple, quadruple and etc posts merged together. Due to the amount of posts that had to be merged, "And also" was just added to the one post to make it flow better since the words were an exact copy of the post before it, normally the original post text isn't modified at all.

Please note that as stated in the Forum Rules, double posting is highly discouraged without a good reason to do so, or without around a month going by.

Double posting is the act of making multiple posts in a row in the same topic, without somebody else posting in-between it. It's against the rules on almost any forum, as it creates unecessary clutter and is often associated with things like spam, flooding, and people trying to inflate their post count.

So please refrain from double posting on the forum, as you had been making 2-3+ posts in a row, and often just minutes, hours and sometimes a day after the previous one, and most of these should've been edited into the original post instead.

Here's some tips that can help you avoid double posting:
1: For continuations of your previous post, use the Edit button instead, as the Forum is not a Chat.
2: If barely any time has passed since your previous post and the edit is of importance, you could copy the text, delete the original post and then repost it with the updated text so that people would be re-notified of it.
3: Reply to multiple people in a single post instead of seperating it, you can use the Multi Quote feature by pressing the [+] next to the Quote button, or open a normal Quote window and copy and paste the text from it.
4: There's no need to make a Forum post soley for the sake of reposting something from the Chat, this is especially the case if it's somebody else's content that they could post themselves if they wanted to.
5: A Forum is a place to gather your thoughts and make informative or useful posts in some manner, instead of being in a rush and making multiple posts back to back in the same topic about similar things, you could try waiting a bit and make nice compilation of it instead.

We're normally pretty leniant about a double post here and there, but when done too much for the wrong reasons it's not ok, as it creates unnecessary clutter and gives the moderators extra work to do cleaning it up.
