I've been noticing a lot lately that I'm getting hit twice between fights far too often for it to be an issue with fighting an comatose char. When did this start?

Seems like you got farmed while fighting and got 2 additional hits in one minute. The double farms, as far as I can tell, are the 30 sec fight refresh.
I'm talking about while fighting. the most recent are not good examples, the person most often at fault is Tezmac, though I have accomplished the same thing attacking folks as well (took some fast clicking).

My next best guess is that you went to fight someone who was comatose. The flag making you able to be farmed is set whenever you attempt to fight, not just when you actually go into a fight. On you battle log it will appear as if you were farmed extra for no reason, but that's only because your attempts to fight comatose enemies was not recorded.
The worst of it is that you don't heal on attempts either, and sadly this is in fact a very old topic of confusion. I'd point you to the section that explains, but I think it was contained in the now-dead help page.
I tried my very hardest to make clear that when I am seeing this I am fighting an entirely live fight list...I'll try and think of a way to prove this, but for now I'd like to know if anyone else has seen it. While the recent double hits may very well have been from a comatose char, the double hits I'm refering too are coming at a point where there are NO comatose chars to give the opportunity, I go from fight won page to fight won page and still see two attacks.

I'll tell you what. You start fighting again and I'll see if I can pull off this farming trick myself. What do you think? :)
Probably someone has a faster network than you.
I have seen this in the past when I was at work with a horrible connection and it took me about 5-6 seconds or so in between fights. When home though, if it takes me even 1/3 of that time I reboot and get my speed back. I did it to a couple of people recently.
I just want to know if this is a bug or intentional.
