Threads getting pulled from Nes/Acrivisiom (serious question)

You might ought to delete your account. I hear that the spelling police have their own black helicopter/men in black units.

"Threads getting pulled from Nes/Acrivisiom"

Did Activision make any games for the NES? I'm more of a playstation person.

< RANT >

I have searched before posting an article I take the time to post it correctly using keywords and all that jazz. I post it, then JUST when the coversation gets good.

It was pulled by the sidebar,centerbar,backwardsbar moderator person stating IT IS A DUPLICATE. EVERY time I then check the other first posted thread and it was posted with no keywords therefore making folks like me who actually search before posting think it has not been posted.

I don't care if people live to post on FR 24/7 let them post first,but for the love of God PLEASE post the article correctly, putting the threads title in keywords and putting commas in the sentence; THEN I can find it when I search to see if the article has already been posted.

< / RANT OVER >

P.S.-I wonder if sidebar moderators know what it feels like to take time and post an article correctly then JUST when you are rolling along in good conversation you receive a freaky odd feeling message in self search that like it is like God pulls the thread AND YOU ARE FINITO TO EXPLAIN YOU DID POST RIGHT AND SEARCH- all awhile knowing you did do a search to no avail but the other article did not show up because of no keywords or different (made up) title. Some people value their time and don't live on here to be the star of the day and post.

So remove KEYWORDS in posting an article cause many are so anxious to post first, they don't use it.

I guess I lied about the rant being turned off... SORRY!

EVERYONE POST THREADS USING KEYWORDS, (cut n paste the TITLE of the thread to keywords and stick commas in every couple words!) AND please POST THE CORRECT TITLE AND SEARCH BEFORE YOU POST-THANK-YOU!!!

Any chance that you could fix the Preview function so that when we post new articles we can preview the headers? As it is right now, when we preview a new article, all we can see is the "Body of Thread" section and not the title, author, date, etc. That's why we keep ending up with crap titles like the one on this thread (Threads getting pulled from Nes/Acrivisiom).
