The above is a link to the thread titled "Way too many duplicates and vanities"
Below is a quote directly from the Mod:
"If it's a breaking news topic, check breaking news first, it's probably already posted. To avoid duplicate posts, please search before posting. The best method to search is to pick a key word or two from the title. If the article you are posting is, "Funny Video, This Land", start with 'Land' for the key word. If it is a hot topic, you might want to use two or more keywords, in this case, try 'Jib'. For an effective search, select 'match any words' and select 'order by post time'."
Note that he didn't say "It's ok to waste everyones time if it's a different article that says the exact same thing that's already been posted 4 different times"
It's funny that you called the other guy a troll, because the propensity to fixate on one small technicality to try and prove a point is an attribute usually seen on the Left.
What you posted is DUPLICATE INFORMATION, FOUR TIMES OVER.
If you doubt me, message the Mod and get his opinion. Then you can waste HIS time, too......
Let's try this again troll.
To be a repost, an article must be posted, by definition, more then once. An article posted once is, again, by definition, a posting, not a repost.
This article was posted once.
I know the math is hard, but feel free to use your fingers.
Then, to make your argument even more pathetic, as has been pointed out to you, the article you are whining has been reposted because it was posted *once* contains information available nowhere else on FR.
Sigh, why do I bother to feed you troll-pin? You truly need mental help of some sort.
