well as you see it got locked no Mod said why. I want to know why so that I don't do it again.

If a thread gets locked, a little common sense can usually determine why.

For reposts, many times, other members will have indicated as much.

Most threads get locked for only a few reasons; those below seem to generate a well known/defined pattern and are continually repeated by people in OT (and some others).

Wrong Forum
Repost
Milestone Bragging
Worthless Neffing
Flaming/Trolling
Stupidity
Babes
No NSFW labeling when a link is generated

"Worthless Neffing"

what would be left after that was eliminated? OT would be a barren wasteland.

I saw the OPs post here.
I searched OT for Dell.
In less than 10 seconds I had the answer to his question. Repost.
He could have done the same thing and should have before making his post in OT.

...but he doesn't want US to tell him it's a repost, he wants a mod to tell him. 🙂

Called using the Broswer search.

In IE
Ctrl-F
Enter "Dell" in the text window
Click the Find Next button

Search engine is not needed.



The problem is that many people do not think to look for the topic before starting a new thread. 🙁

1) sarcasm.
2) obvious sarcasm.
3) not everyone uses IE, nor should they.
4) apparently i need a jr moderator badge to be so slick.
