I just noticed a legitimate thread wherein the person asks, "Can the Sony reader read to you." The only reply was a VERY rude DUPLICATE THREAD and the the thread had been closed.

Did you guys ever stop to think that people don't have time to read through every darn thread on this site? Did it ever occur to you that merely saying DUPLICATE THREAD and not giving a link to the other thread(s) is incredibly RUDE. The person who responds in this manner certainly will never make a good teacher or even a good parent. The motto should be to help, not to react to duplicate threads like they are taboo.

And before any one pulls that "use the search feature" garbage, let me clearly state that I have NEVER seen a forum search feature that worked worth a darn. A three year old could code better search features than those used with forums.
