Double postings of items of interest are common. Most of the time, folks here do check before they post. If it is a newly reported item - once one has checked to make sure it is not posted - it takes time to make a new post.
Some of us here are slower than others. Usually because we want to verify, clarify, and check the story over all.
To those that are quick to jump with condemnation, please consider this, you are no better than the media that rush to publish a story without verification.
Whinners are whiners and whiners are whinners.
One rhymes with shiners and one rhymes with dinners.
Personally, I like my double-double with extra onions, no lettuce.
“If you do get called out for a double posting in the circumstances you have described, just hit the abuse button and ask the mods to delete. NBD.
The thing I dislike is the one article with 60 comments and the other post of the same article with just a few less. Very messy. Even if it’s one second different, get it nuked.”
Redundancy can be messy or a blessing. That is true. But aren’t you glad that the power company has redundancy built in its grid? And the water company, the internet provider, even your spouse. God Himself is redundant in calling us again and again to Him.
Thank you for the advice. It is much appreciated.
“Personally, I like my double-double with extra onions, no lettuce.”
Whoa! Wait! What about the special sauce?
Thank you for the laugh! It is much appreciated.
This is a lame post. You could have posted a beaver thread instead.
“For those of us that have lives and don’t spend every waking moment on the internet, multiple posts are no problem. Less chance of missing something.”
This is true for me, too. It might be sometime before I get on here. The flow of information is like a river of water. You don’t know when someone will get to the water and put their hand into it all.
Thank you for your thoughts.
“Hmmm. I won’t ask.”
If you don’t ask you’ll never know. On the other hand, if you ask make sure the person is honest and will give you a strait answer and not play foolish games.
FReepmail...
I have replied. It would have been more rich if you would have posted.
I hope you will take our personal email and post it. It will be uplifting to us all.
No reason to hide in the shadows with back room conversations.
As you wish...
I FReepmailed:
You know this was written about Hugh Heffner? As such, it could not pertain to me. :-)You repliedAre you a person of the female persuasion? or gay?
Otherwise any red blooded male would be interested in Carly Simon...
I am a child of God. Made in His image. Made to His specifications before I was in my Mother’s womb.And I was in the process of composing my response when I saw your postYour post are some of the best here on FR. I have always enjoyed them.
Where your beef with me comes from on this I don’t know.
As to any red blooded male being interested in Carly Simon, I will object. My Daddy hated Jane Fonda and Carly Simon for their stance, in general, against America and, in specific, against nuclear power plants being built here.
If you have any other agendas or games to play out, go ahead.
Heck! I hated Jane Fonda!Didn't know about Carly's politics.
I actually don't have a beef with you, didn't want to ask those questions on the open forum lest someone take offense. Trying in my ever-clumsy way to be tactful, and failing, as usual...
