Most people don't use OUIJA Boards to determine if any useful and interesting threads have appeared over the last 3-4 hours.

Indeed! So another way of looking at it is that providing a link to an earlier thread provides those interested in the topic with an easy means to visit that thread for further information/discussion. I wouldn't necessarily consider that a bad thing or take it as 'complaining' (unless disparaging remarks are made at the same time).

Thank you, Moltke, for correctly divining my intent. I didn’t disparage the OP. The same article had been previously posted and that’s fact.

Look, I’ve never been the thread police. But we also try not to waste Jim’s bandwidth as responsible posters. Using search is key to that. Yes, duplicate posts sometimes add to the discussion and this was a nice piece of work by the writer.

However, if you all want to shoot the messenger, I guess I can’t stop you. Have a great day.
