Issue Summary
My shoutbox has started to behave odd! - Some users get this error when trying to post:
"Validation error, please try again. If the error occurs again please contact the website administrator."
Some of the users getting this message was able to send massages before!

subscribing - me too, upgrading from 5.x to 6.1, some users can shout, some cannot, silly thing that some people told me that they upgraded their java and it started to work propoerly :)
#2
in my case setting page compression (in drupal admin/settings/performance) off caused this error to go away - i think maybe my host is already comressing pages, or maybe shoutbox don't do well with that setting
#3
sorry for spaming but today i rechecked this and it seems that i was wrong - the setting that causes shoutbox validation problems was block cache, not page compression, sorry
#4
thx to palik, that solved the problem :D
block cache must be deactiveted to work with shoutbox.. why not
#5
Of cours, the shoutbox form has token to validate, you it can't not be cached.
#6
try 2.x: much better
#7
i used version 6.x-2.3 and still got this problem ;) but now it's solved :D

This has nothing to do with Shoutbox. This is in regards to the Drupal form API and it's working exactly as expected. These errors usually come if you're logged in to a site, say with multiple tabs open. You log out of the site in one window, but in the other window you try to submit a form. These message will show because your session was ended and the form data is now invalid.
