What's the point of posting that something is a repost? It just bumps it back to the top of the threads and doesn't accomplish anything. wouldn't we be better if we just reported to moderator to merge the threads?
its a way of telling that person "please so a search before posting!" or as bubbles said
I understand that. I just don't think it's very effective in doing that. I think people do it because they feel it gives them power or something. If that's how you get your kicks then gezuntahait
This repost habit started long before we were merging threads because there was too much clutter.

Even I was a n00b once upon a time
I wanna be a mod too...
This my 20th post, how many posts until I get upgraded from "Newbie"...
and what ever happened to the karma points?
Unfortunately it was discontinued, don't remember the details.
so lets make a petition
You have my vote. Does anyone remember why it was removed?
Not sure prob because to many people were smiting eachother http://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=1706.msg13746#msg13746
I think if the +/- is by post then it can't be abused too much...
If it doesn't show who does it then I feel that some noobs or people that have an agenda may just -1 too often. You should start a thread with a poll of wether to start the kudos system again. Also asking for suggestions and modifcations based upon what has worked on other forums. *If you do I'd suggest making it in general disscusion.
I think +/- per post and it shows who gave + and - is a good idea.
