Question for all you re-post haters out there - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #19267 13 posts Started by amysmojo
How come some of you feel the need to always point out "reposts"? I can understand why you do it if someone asks a searchable question like "where can I buy tail lights" or something like that. But whenever people post something they want to share w/ the rest of us, some of you will reply saying "this is a repost...ive seen this already bla bla bla!" And I just wondered why you even bother posting in those topics if thats all you have to say?

If youve seen it...so what? why say anything at all? lol....theres always new people coming to the site & maybe not everybody has seen it. (whatever it may be)

Anyway...its just funny to me thats all....>biggrin.gif>

But really....if you go see a movie...are you gonna walk into the next showing & shout out to the audience "repost repost! Ive seen it already!" I cant imagine anybody doing that...so why bother doing it on here? LOL (oh no im probly giving some of you ideas haha)

anyway....just thinking "outloud" Sorry...
If anyone responds with the word "repost" I'll kill them.
Hahaha I thought about that too
yea i dont get it either.... why do poeple havta point that out???

Some people dont know that something has been posted before... like me! >biggrin.gif> There are new member people that come all the time and they dont know about past topics...

I dunno... it kinda bugs me when someone puts up a topic and then later on someone comes along saying REPOST!!!!!! I dunno bout you but it makes me wanna tell them "Hey, you dont havta read and respond to this topic so shut up! I dont care if you've seen this topic before!" LOL but I only feel like that on bad days >biggrin.gif> But yea, ya know what i mean? >smile.gif>

I usually dont mind if there are re-posts, but some people just dont use the search button. This site has been around for a while and most questions have been answered properly in the past. That is why the search button is placed in all forums and people do get mad because they have to keep answering the same question over and over again. As I said, that is how I see it but I dont mind having to answer questions that have been asked.
