The 'Maximum trigger depth exceeded' error is like a Sith Lord - it's always the trigger getting executed multiple times. Option D is the answer, no question.

We should check the trigger logic to make sure it's not causing this issue.

Haha, I remember when I first encountered this error. It was like a never-ending loop of triggers! Option D is the one, no doubt.

Yeah, that error message can be frustrating. The trigger needs to be optimized to avoid multiple executions.

I had the same issue before. It was a nightmare trying to figure out why the trigger was firing repeatedly.

I agree, it's definitely option D. The trigger must be getting executed multiple times.

Hmm, I'm not sure about the other options, but the 'Maximum trigger depth exceeded' error is a clear sign of a recursive trigger. Option D is the way to go.

I agree with Allene. This error often occurs when the trigger is getting executed multiple times, causing an infinite loop. Definitely go with option D.

The 'Maximum trigger depth exceeded' error usually indicates that the trigger is calling itself recursively. Option D seems to be the most likely cause here.
