Posting police: "How is this post different that yesterday's exact same subject, also from you?" Damn, didn't mean to get your shorts in a twist. I'm 92 and my memory is shot.

"How is this post different that yesterday's exact same subject, also from you?"

Damn, didn't mean to get your shorts in a twist. I'm 92 and my memory is shot. "Yesterday" for me is probably like last year for you. Do you remember everything you did from a year ago?

Hope you do better if you live this long! Harry PS And anyway, why do you care? Seems like a waste of your time, just to bust a stranger's chops in a freakin' NG. I have to admit that I'm cofused. Usually your posts are worth reading.

Harry,

You didn't address this to anybody in particular.

For future reference, a post like this might have been better if sent as a private message to the person you are addressing.

Hang in there. We all have good days and not so good days

The quote he referenced in the first line was a response made to a <prior> posting.....
THAT's what his post was in response to.

I remember the post and agree with Harry13.

92!!! Good for you Harry!!! Maybe that's the secret to longevity...blowing off a little steam every once in a while. I'll try it and see if I'm around 17 years from now.

Yet another reason why there needs to be more moderators on the main site who can delete duplicates, deal with people behind the scenes so as to not cause rancor or insult.

If the same image(s) is posted in multiple categories, which is the duplicate?

"If you've been hurt or injured by a duplicate post,
you may be entitled to compensation."

Then again, maybe not.....

this was from the op posting the same subject twice in two days in the same main section. Not duplicate images across multiple categories. The point is that a moderator could clean this all up easily.

I reiterate:
"If you've been hurt or injured by a duplicate post,
you may be entitled to compensation."

But I suppose duplicate posts really get under some people's skin.

I have more important things to be concerned about.

I wasnt the one who was concerned about the duplicate posting, didnt comment on it, didnt try to correct the OP and dont try to police this site. I was simply pointing out that the site is left up to self appointed monitors, it is a mess...a real moderator would be helpful in so many ways. Freeze postings when they go off track, etc.

You want more, pay more ...

Meanwhile, the all-volunteer posse does what it pleases, just as the non-paying community members post mostly where and what they please too.

Doesn't seem like it.
