Double Posting - How NOT TO

[Markinsa]

Lately there have been a rash of Double, Triple Postings of News Items. What is sad is this is preventable and all it takes most times is a Copy, Paste and Click. Please review the information below to learn how NOT to Double Post an article.

1. Search the text you want to post and find something that is unique to it. Find a unique word or phrase in your article and then copy and paste it into the Box next to “Find Words”. It helps to place the phrase in Quotation Marks (“) to narrow your search.

2. If the article you found was posted recently then you can also narrow your search by using the “Find by date”. (If the article was posted yesterday then use yesterday’s date and today’s date.)

3. Click on the “Perform Search” button to start your search. .

Below are the results. This article appears to have been posted.

Ha Ha......Have you noticed that on the new commercials, they dont say "even a caveman can do it" anymore? They just say "even he can do it". LOL I wonder if some a**hat sued them for some politically correct nonsense.

Beautiful Markinsa!! thank you!!

I'd also add that often when replying to a post there are duplicates --- I believe sometimes the server is busy and the post button gets pushed too many times -- this is for the repetitive posts we see -- so please be patient and just let the server catch up to you!!

A couple of conventions that would make our forum even better!

1- use the actual headline for the topic label in the "news" section ... that makes it much easier to check to see if it is already posted.

2- when you repost a rumor, please indicate that it is not yours in the body of the post as well as the sub title.

3- make every effort to begin threads in the appropriate header -- if it is your opinion it goes in

Thank you!

Sometimes it's hard NOT to double post...depending on the *Title* of the Post. I've read

double Posts under completely different Subjects, Titles, and Forums.

And sometimes people Post in an already on-going Post.

I admit, I don't read all Posts in here, cuz some titles don't catch my eye as interesting.

GLTA and Go>>>>>>RV Just my worth. Thanx
