My feelings about reposts have changed.
I started here about a year ago very casually, but did not become a member until April of 06 and not really active until about 2 months after that. I wanted to get to know the members and what was already on the site. I guess that's what bugged me the most, get to know the site before submitting.
Submitting isn't all that this site is about, it's the people. It takes time and effort to make a post hoping we like it. By saying repost is kind of a slap in the face and a sure fire way to have newcomers feel unwelcome.
There has to be about 40- 50,000 items here by now. Reposts are going to happen.
I remember making comments even a blog about this and Sarah always would say just ignore it. That turned out to be the best advice.
If it's a repost, report it and ignore it. I don't know if the reporting thing is working but its not the post but the people.
I resign from the force.
Steve

Watching professional fishing on TV is just watching a bunch of master baiters
hold their rods
Politics is just a bunch of mass debators in one room
