Since i have heard that the reported button change to red when reported and cannot be press anymore
then the colour scheme changed back to blue while maintaining the press once system

could this press once be augment to the reply/new post button

This problem was already addressed actually. All additional consecutive posts are auto added with the previous one (by same poster). Of course they could disable it, but that's another point.

but there are cases of double or tripple posting..too

because the user choose not to merge the post option
if you look carefully, when u add reply there is 1 option for user to either merge or separate the post

I know about the merging of post
this is about opening new topics.

i have seen a case of tripple new topics of the same thing
and there are no auto merging of new topics right?...

why need to merge 2 topic??
i think TS feedback is redundant

we can press the report button if someone have make multiply same topic

what i have seen is

there was a guy open three new post of the same thing unintentionally

afterwards, he close the other two acknowledging the error

what my suggesti,.... wait

okay.
can anyone clarify to me how triple posting happen
and can it be duplicated at anytime...

cause AFAIK, once i press "add new post" or "add new reply" button
shouldnt the page jump to the view page of my post
and I thought there is a flood prevention to prevent continous non-stop post (see pic)
and yet double/triple posting still happens

now back to what i've been saying
my suggestion is to either have the button like report button so that
once pressed you have to wait for the page to load/refresh again before the button works again

so instead of pressing the add reply button for the 2nd or 3rd time cause "it seems like not working" or "did i really pressed the button?"
the single use per-session button will force the user to wait out the page to load properly before doing anything else on that page.
