Arqade Meta has recently had three different posts that have attracted quite a bit of attention, announcing three beloved Arqade mods giving up their diamonds:

I'm assuming the system isn't aware enough to check that Ash's modship was already taken away, so this looks like a bug to me.

Just in case people are not aware, the Hot Meta Posts box is supposed to show recent meta posts with a net score of 3 or higher. And to confirm this is only an issue on Arqade, this is what the Hot Meta Posts box currently looks like on RPG.se:

Both badp and Invader Skoodge's posts used , while Ash's used . Editing Invader Skoodge's announcement to use resulted in the question appearing under Hot Meta Posts after about an hour or so (its not immediate):
