Attn. Moddy mods.
Please note: Perhaps one also needs to take into account that we've pedes from all around the world here, so posts that come and get views between 0:00 and 12:00 are often not seen by pedes who are checking out GAW between 13:00 and 23:00.
In this case, a few duplicates helps. We who are asleep when the USA is awake often see an entirely different board, including different stickies, different HOT posts, and different NEW posts. So the random duplicate say 8 or 10 hours apart I think has benefits.
But when you have, say, 10 or 20 DUPES being posted within an 8 hour or 12 hour period, that's when you've got problems.
In such cases, I'll be happy to deport the dupes.
That's interesting. Good point. One thing, we generally allowed duplicates that are from different sources and that are providing analysis from different perspectives. We just mean breaking news and stuff like that.
I don't mind an eight-hour dupe as I'm on the night shift. However, it's annoying to see the exact same post every five down the page; clearly posted within minutes or even seconds of each other. Looks as if someone has connection problems and repeatedly hits [Submit].
Now I bid you all goodnight. My bedtime!
