View Full Version : Double Posting.

I have been on many forums, even modded on a few, but I have never seen such rampant double posting. Is it really the difficult to use the edit feature? The end result is a bunch of post greedy users who jump 200 posts in a month. Seriously... check some of the people who joined in July.
Now if they're not double posting, there's a serious spamming issue. I don't have anything against the mods on this forum, but is there any reason for it to be so lax? Perhaps its just a pet peeve of mine. Any other users find anything wrong with this?

Some people get on my nerves, like the ones who create new threads (or polls) just so they can get more posts. The only reason that I have 900+ posts is I have had a lot of time this summer. Before the summer started, I probably had 300-400.

When they are seen double posts and double threads are deleted. Posts made to just pad the post count to hit 50 posts to receive an avatar are also deleted if the serve no other value.

SF - looking at your sig, you are considering a non-Yonex? Spatula shaped racquets are hard to find elsewhere :-D

Now that I think about it more... it makes a little sense to me. Assuming that there are so many tennis fans out there, many of whom are new to the sport. I could imagine it would get a little rowdy. Has there been any attempts to make blatant warnings against it?
I see a few veterans doing it... ones with exuberant post counts. *cough* *cough*

Dripping with sarcasm, no need to fly the "I" word around here (thanks to that "People don't like being called idiots so don't use it).

No worries. It happens at least 100 times a day on here. I guess I just didn't make it clear enough.
