Too many times I come on and see four duplicates thread, or even worse scattered all over the forums. While I understand that the former case is caused by site's slowness among other factors beyond user's control, I seem to recall that vBulletin supports limiting how many thread you can start.
Why not change the limit so users can only create a new thread only per, let's say, five minutes? That may help relieve the excessive duplicating and alert user that the thread already has been submitted and encourage them to edit the mis-submitted thread instead of sprinkling the wild oats around.
