Funny how not one single original poster has had a problem with it.. guess you should go back through your stalking files and check that little fact...
I don’t have to stalk all I have to do is open
a thread and there you are.
After looking at your posting history, anyone could ask you the same question.
Oh, I see not.
You'd know.
I can only think of the scene in the movie “Christmas Story” when the little boy stuck his tongue on the freezing flag pole and got it stuck... and hope of a “similar” happening on the glacier.
.
I was going to leave it alone but after the pithy
little Frmail from trooprally I decided to reply.
PAR35 doesn't seem to be making his life's goal to point out duplicate posts like you do.
It’s also about condemning others for things that someone ends up doing themselves like mentioned in post 17.
Not cool.
Well...bump that!
xcamel seems to make it his life’s work to point out double, triple postings.
I am happy that he is so diligent wrt this forum.
However, some of the last posts receive more replies than the first post.
That, alone, makes double posts worthwhile.
Unless, xcamel, all you are doing is collecting all of the posts in one place.
If so, I think there might be a better way to do it.
Do you have any ideas?
If not, then please cease and desist.
I know I’ve caught a thread for the first time on its second or even third posting.
I went through xcamel’s posting history and clicked on the links to see WHEN the *original* threads were posted. A fair chunk of the original threads were posted at some time between 1 AM and 6 AM; IOW, in the middle of the night when most people are sleeping.
The largest category was when the *original* thread was posted in the middle of the work day.
Most missed threads happen then the majority of us are either sleeping or out supporting ourselves working for a living. Fancy that.
It’s been noticed and commented on, on this site, that search doesn’t always work well; and that is not the responsibility of the poster.
I’ve actually seen people apologize in advance if they’re posting a duplicate because of harassment from other FReepers about duplicate posts. That should not have to happen; there’s no excuse for that. Nobody should feel so harassed that they have to defend themselves from the getgo.
I am 100% in agreement with you ukie55.
He really seems to be addicted to finding
duplicate threads. It appears to be in an attempt
to make the second poster feel like there
is something wrong with them. But that’s usually
the way it is with people who lack self confidence.
They have to make someone else look bad when they
can’t make themselves look good.
Do you use the same handle over at the DU ?? - you’re really starting to act like it...
Never even been DU.
You seem to know about it though.
I would think getting naked on a glacier would only contribute to further shrinkage....
Bwaaaaaaa Haaaa Haaaa
ROTFLOL
That's all I'm going to say. Otherwise I would get banned!!
