Whenever I try to make a new thread/topic, it comes up with the suggestions for similarly-titled existing threads. That's fine. But when I scroll down and hit submit anyway, it doesn't let me. It keeps going back to the page recommending existing threads. I have tried this numerous times and it hasn't worked. It has only let me submit if I change the title so nothing is in common with an already existing one.

(even when making this topic, it said "scroll down this page and click 'Submit' to create your new thread.", which did not work, hence the absurd title)

I'm unable to repro this. If you could let me know which browser (& version) you are using, I will investigate.

I wonder if the error is caused by the algorithm. Perhaps when there are numerous words that are similar to other topics, it just checks one word at a time. I noticed that unless I changed each word it would not allow me to accept the topic as desired. I use IE9. Think

I use the same version of Chrome, so I'll keep an eye out & investigate what might be causing this.

EDIT: Thanks RFNAPLES, I'll investigate that.

Happened to me a few times too.

Both on Firefox and the iPad.

This just happened to me for the first time (yesterday and today), both on Firefox and Chrome.
