Simultaneous posting on forums

Just a suggestion, Would it be possible to give a notification in the 'reply form' whilst writing a response if a new message has already been posted: I've seen it happen many times where there have been two almost identical replies to the same message within a few minutes. I realise that having a seperate browser window/tab open pointing at the original message would solve this 'problem', but could a more elegant method be encorperated into the reply form? Thanks.

Not sure how this would work. We'd have to be constantly polling the database while you write your message to ask 'has there been another reply?' 'has there been another reply yet?' 'has there been another reply NOW?' But eventually we'd probably just yell, in a bad Scottish accent, 'No Donkey! There has not been another reply!'

Colin Mackay has never been known to shout this.
