It's going to happen people, so get used to it.

Of course it would be best if nobody did it but a subject can be talked about in many areas, and over a long period of time.

Taking a search for Kindle gives me 20 pages of threads to read thru. The same with a search for Sony so I think that's a built in limit on MR. The real total would be much higher.

Moderators at least have an excuse, it's their job (among others). But the best we can do is to do a quick scan of thread titles and then post if we don't see something similar to what we want to say.


So what do we have (as of this moment)?
News .......................................... - 129,623 posts
General Discussions.................... - 36,986 posts
Deals, Freebies, and Resources ..- 32,537 posts
Author Self-Promotions ..............- 8,896 posts
Reading Recommendations .........- 46,842 posts
Writers' Corner ...........................- 15,972 post

That's 270,856 posts just in the first section.

Why are some people so anal?

You stole my line!!

On the other hand, anyone that does a search on just "kindle" or "sony" deserves what they get. With that being said though, I think most people are pretty polite regarding duplicate posts, but you're right, there are some jerk out there who see it as their cause to let you know what an ignoramous you are for doing it
