Repost rule...

[monk3y]

So what's the acceptable time frame to making a repost thread with it counting against you?

If at least one person remembers the previous iteration of that post, it's a repost. 😛

hard to say. ppl come and ppl go... what the night crew on monday gets to see might not be seen by the wednesday morning crew.

so, i would go for a week or two.

There is no rule, not like anyone would follow it anyways.

In their eyes you are either posting a repost, or bumping a dead thread.

edit: if anything it's 3 months from the last post in the thread, that's the time they get archived.

R == R regardless of T

When you can no longer post to the first and/or latest thread, you may create a new one.

If you still can post to another thread, bump it instead and add your thoughts.

The first rule about repost is we don't talk about repost.

 

[Perknose]

If it was previously posted within living memory of anyone on the internet, someone here will tell you about it, possibley while questioning your sanity and your manhood, you crazyghey reposter, you.

A repost is a repost but there is no reason for asshats to bitch about a repost. Life goes on. 😀

It ain't a fvckin' repost without a link to the original. Anybody who fails to come up with that link, yet has the gall to yip about a repost, can suck it! :|

Except in situations where the content is something that has been posted on every forum in the world at least 5 times.

examples: "OMG TEH WHALE IZ EXPLODED!!! (video!)", "SWEET! GUY BEATS MARIO 3 IN 12 MINS!", "411 y0u|2 8453 4|23 8310n6 70 u5!! lolol"

[Cawchy87]

depends on material. Movie clips should never be re-posted.

If you're gonna start a thread about a certain topic and are worried it may have already been discussed, you should be doing a quick search first, anyway. At least that's how it is on most forums. But if it's a couple months old and buried, especially in a large forum where there is a large post rate, it's prolly OK to start a new one. That's just my buck, two-fifty on it. 😛
