A Common Theme to Thread Topics...

Has anyone else noticed that often a topic will be posted and within a day or two, someone else asks the same question? Anyone care to explain this phenomenon?

Example:

Thread 1

Thread 2

Thread 3

The examples were all posted within 3 days by 3 seperate people. No similar postings within the last month. I've noiticed this on many occasions. I'm not talking about blatant reposts of a link, or parody threads....just people with similar observations or questions.

its beacuse someone sees it here and then posts it in another forum, the other person sees it there and comes here forgetting that ITS ALWAYS HERE FIRST!

you're mising the point...I'm talking about threads like what I linked to.....someone asking about the best celll family plan. I could see it if it was a game link or a joke, etcetera....but these are threads about personal issues or questions.

I wonder if it is a subconcious thing...they see the thread topic and without realizing it begin to wonder, then post about it without realizing it was already discussed.

Dimwits, nefs, asshats and fvcktards took over the board long ago, and the Mods don't seem concerned about repost justice. So, go ahead and tear the reposters a new one, they deserve it!
