: You know, sometimes you post this stuff and it doesn't come up right away, so you post it again, stating it in a different way, and then both come up and everyone thinks you have a stutter!!
The posts do go up right away ... instantaneously, in fact. It is your browser that is not reading them right away. Perhaps you are using the "Back" button? Or, your browser is not set to automatically refresh the page with each return.
Anyway, the posts don't go through any delaying process ... straight from you to our server.
Another thing, related ... When you use the "Preview Message" button, your post appears EXACTLY as it will appear after it is posted ... but, it is not yet posted! If you attempted to attach a picture or set up a link, and it doesn't appear in "Preview," then it won't appear after you click on "Post." You need to go back and fix whatever error you made.
