Thanks for the responses. The only reason I worried was that it tended to happen a lot given the erratic hardware behavior (but it should drop off because I'm using a different mouse for the time being.)
Out of curiosity, is the merging of posts the "You have already posted this reply to this thread" feature, or does it happen behind the scenes at some point?
In response to doctorgalactic and LeCard, I don't think it's a driver issue. Some people have reported that updating or reinstalling the drivers does help in some cases, but it's more likely a hardware issue. I'm on a Mac and did not install the Mac drivers, which are more like a utility and not exactly needed to make the mouse work. I have used them in the past but had a hardware issue a few months ago and removed the drivers just to make sure it wasn't a software issue.
Razer mice apparently are extremely susceptible to getting foreign matter under the buttons--mine accumulates some kind of dusty debris that seeps into the slits in the chassis. It's always perplexed me because I usually keep my hands clean. For most people, blowing out the mouse with compressed air helps (I don't have any, though).
The second and more invasive solution is to actually open the mouse up (Naga have rubber feet on the bottom--move them and you see screws) and clean the contacts. For some users, the actual plastic clicking mechanism has worn down from use; I've read that people remedy this by using wax or superglue to reseal/rebuild the plastic part.
I'm not really a hardware person and lack the dexterity to do that. A lot of people just RMA the mice, as apparently Razer has a 2 year warranty... but the last time I RMA'd something (RAM) it was quite the pain.
