im guilty as a new guy of posting a couple of repeat posts, forgive me i am new!?
as i said somewhere else, new people dont fully know how the boards work, may not have noticed the tiny little search button top of screen (like i
didnt til today!) may not know about subscriptions and sure dont care yet about ats points so dont use that as an excuse for people starting new
threads just for those, which are pretty useless at the end of the day...
and lets say now that im stressing over a problem or have a personal experience i wana share, i want 'as many people to see it as possible'...
i want them to see my question or title of thread.. which maybe difrent to what other people are calling it..
[like i got pulled up on sleep paralysis,, not knowing someones already posted it under a difrent heading, incubus, night terrors or wateva...]
lets say i do notice 1 of those threads.. but its way down the list and also im not a date watcher of posts etc... either
i may think to myself "shall i post in this guys thread? is it still being read? maybe its not... hows this work? oh man i cant be as*ed scanning
minute details" etc... cause my brains blitzed with sh*t loads of info...
and if i do use that thread then nobody will see my title or question, watever,,, at the start on the board! ...
so il just put a new post! sleep paralysis anybody?
so my post is started.. goin fine until somebody whos seen it before says "HEY! wat are u doin this has been done before! u shud at least read or
scan to see if its been done before!"
lets say i didnt even notice a thread on it.. cause its got a diffrent name..
rarely often do people give you the link, they just wana rant how NEW and stupid you are..
[fair enough! stupid just means unknowing.. we are all stupid]
but why the hell do u have to jump in and pull me on it? and MOAN, with a pompous attitude just cause u have been here longer and know more how it
works?
doesnt it make mores sense to leave the topic alone for them to chat among themselves? is it so bad that u just cannot bare to browse past another
repeat? are u so weak minded to crumble and u just have to have ur little rant?
well i guess it must be that bad... and trust me, im sorry! but if people are just goin to be rude then f*k them? the damage is already done, the
post cant be deleted, only edited. or locked by mods... why hang around debating with the guy and spoiling his thread? what damage does it really
cause you?
its about time this matter has been dealt with.. there surely cant be anything new left on this site to bring up! so most posts are old, and new
people arnt likely to continue those posts because they want their own thread like the other person had...
im no writer, u will probably tear that to pieces but i hope theres a bit of sense in there somewhere.
