when i go to post something on here over the last few days its been nearly impossible!
i press the 'submit' button but the 'preview' button highlights and works instead so it just previews what i have wrote and it does this a number of times before it actually posts
anybody have the same problem?

It was me.... But it was for a good reason.
As we have been getting alot of spam on the site lately which other admin have been under alot of pressure keeping up with it all sometimes.
I have learnt that most of these "SPAM" posts are not caused by a someone actually typing on the website, but they are actually using a program which will replicate as if someone was posting.
Pretty clever eh?
To fight against this process, I have added a security feature which basically starts a timer when a posting page has loaded, then if a message is posted within 5 seconds then it will show a preview, which will then mean that the program can not post, but a physical member can press the submit button.
Hopefully it won't take long to get used to, but it is certainly making the admin of SWB's job alot easier.
Hope this clears it up
