OK, I should admit it doesn't happen frequently, but, as members are growing, and related threads/posts too, it would be more frequent in the future.
So, I wonder if there is a plugin that "prevents" you to post your comment, and that tells you something like "hey, while you were writing, another one has posted a comment... why don't you read it and eventually edit your post?"
It is what rutracker forum does - and probably others, but I noted it only there.

This often happens to me because I frequently spend a long time writing replies. A plugin sounds like a good idea.

You can just edit or delete your post after comment if that happens. Why you need the forum software to do everything for you - next you want it to type out what you're thinking proof read and send so you can spend your time doing something else!

I've seen that prompt on other forums. I usually ignore it and just proceed with posting. Afterwards I read the new post and edit accordingly if necessary.

You can pop-up an alert to tell people a new reply has been posted. I'm not sure if there's a MyBB plugin for that or not, but I have seen that elsewhere.

That's a problem that has happened to me before. A person even got very angry at me since I missed their post (no loss there, the person was a jerk).
I'm like Chewtobacco I take a long time to reply and then fix my terrible typing so I'd probably ignore a warning just like Brutto. so a feature would be nice but not a high priority.
