Double-posting
Double-posting

There's a lot of unnecessary double-posting going on these days. A LOT. And from many users. Not just one. Why?

Hmm....that may be true but most users just double-post if necessary.

And if you just edit, it doesn't show up as a new post on the topic symbol, and nobody sees it.
And most users apologize for double-posting IN their double-post.

Delete and repost with edits.

If you're seeing double-posting that you deem unnecessary, just report the first post in the chain and we'll handle it from there. The only real exceptions to double-posting are if it's in the Fortress of Awesome or your Levels/Level Series topic, where you would be posting multiple levels. And even then, the latter can be avoided if you just edit your post when you put in another level code. In any other case though, double-posting is generally not allowed, and apologizing for doing it only shows us you were aware of your mistake and you could have, indeed, avoided doing it. If you see double-posting, report it. You don't get penalized for false reports and it makes our jobs a whole lot easier.

Eeh, I'd prefer you don't double-post in your Art topic unless it's been a few days (at least 24 hours) since your last post and only if you're updating with more artwork.
