2. errorPlacement: function(error, element) {
3.    if(element.attr('name') == 'groups[buyer][email]' && error.html().indexOf('<a') > 0)
4.    {
5.      console.log('placeing');
6.      error.appendTo($('#email_inuse_error'));
7.      return;
8.    }
9.     error.remove();
10.    },

Which makes is so that my email field is the only field that shows inline error messages, and only shows the one message which includes a link. 

However, after the email field blur()'s and the message showing a link appears, the validation plugin will start validating on keypresses (which is OK) and placing all of the subsequent messages into the #email_inuse_error div, when they should have just been removed by the conditional in  errorPlacement().

What am I missing?
