This is an exellent community but how can we take anyone seriously as a researcher of news and information if they cannot even use the search button on here for key phrases of an article before posting? I understand there are some obscure headings and sometimes it's inevitable but the number of duplicate posts is getting completely out of hand.

Not true. Over a year ago, I got a short ban for a comment that could be taken a couple of ways...explained my side, and I believe it was the mod who'd put me in timeout ...reversed it and let me out of jail.
From what I've seen, an individual post or accidental repetition of a topic generally won't get you in trouble. You have to build up a bank of more than 1 post that insult participants here or smear/mock their general beliefs to be sanctioned. They are going after patterns of behavior, not opinions.
