Doublepost Prevention
Developer Last Online: May 2013 
vBulletin 3.8 Version
Please remember to click Mark as Installed if you use this modification. Support questions from members who have not marked this as installed will be considered low priority. This is an updated version of the popular modification, previously released by Xenon. It is released with his kind permission. Basically, if member posts in a thread where they were the previous last poster, then if the conditions are met, their new post will be auto-merged into the previous post instead of creating a new "double" post. A number of options are provided ; Time Limit - if more than xxx minutes have passed since the last post, no merge is done. Timestamp Spacer - if enabled, a timestamped spacer is added between the old post text and the new post text. Post Timestamp Update - if enabled the newly merged post will have its post time updated to the new time, otherwise it retains the time of the original post. Spacer Colour - allows you to set the colour of the spacer between merged posts. Usergroup exceptions - Allows you to exempt certain usergroups from the doublepost merges. Forum exceptions - Allows you to exempt certain forums form the doublepost merges. All settings are located in vBulletin Options > Doublepost Prevention. To install just unzip the XML and import into vB using the ACP Product Manager. History: v3.8.001 : First Release for vB 3.8. v3.8.002 : Phrased the post separater. v3.8.003 : Added JS Template - removing need to edit quick reply javascript file. v3.8.004 : Updated spacer options. v3.8.005 : Updated timestamp spacer to fix issue with large merge times.

I just tried this with vb 4 its working just fine. All I had to do was remove the max version of the mod. Will do some more testing just to make sure.
Was able to test this with 4 post in a row. All combined just fine. Ajaxed Enaled. VBSEO enabled. Using Quicc Replay! No members have liked this post.

Just to help out others, the Inferno Shoutbox was causing this mod to not function properly on my forum.. I had to completely uninstall the shoutbox (not just disable) in order to get it to work

I know Paul is busy porting his modifications over to vB4, but hopefully this one is near the top of his priority list. It's been a life-saver on my forum.

Unfortunately, its last on my list, as it involves javascript, which I am not very knowledgable about, and is also not likely to be an easy change as the quick reply system has changed in 4.0.

No, you would need to edit the code to actually calculate those values.

No, it doesnt work properly on vbulletin 4.
First of all, unless you fudge the product file, you cannot install it on 4.0 However, if you do install it on 3.x , then it will only work in a fashion, in so much as it will merge the posts, however the [ajax] display code will not work, so you will get multiple copies of the post displayed. JFYI, Im currently testing a 4.0 version.
