It would be helpful to readers if when a thread is closed as a consequence of an existing thread on the same topic that a link to the existing topic be included with the thread closure statement.
That is all. Thanks!
Or better yet, you can search for a duplicate thread first so we don't have to waste our time closing it or expecting us to do your work for you. Thanks
Snitches get stitchesIf each of us tried a little harder, we'd probably save the mods a couple of hours a day doing stuff we don't know about but that they can get tired of doing to much of the same mistakes people make. With the couple of hours, they might get to post their 2Cents worth too.Apparently you haven't started a thread that already had 3 or 4 other threads on the topic, or were worded such that your title and their title didn't jive, but the issue was the same. I have, and I learned to spend a little time trying to be sure no one has started a thread about the same subject. Win some lose some, but at least occasionally you realize there's already a thread ready for you to post your 2Cents worth.It's very political which threads get closed and which aren't.
I will try to check, but it gets hard in all the forums and headlines people will make up.
Normally If i see a duplicate thread of mine, i will just bump theirs ( i dont want them to feel bad, because most posters are not flamers)
I am normally on at night and try to help kat when I can.(she is the third shift girl)

The OP is absolutely correct, I couldn't count the number of times I see something that looked interesting only to find "closed- multiple threads on this already". Yeah? WHERE ARE THEY? Seems to me if you've merged threads, you must know where they are. But no, let's blame the clientele, there's a good plan.

Exactly! Thank You! That's all I was asking for.
