In Paranormal I started a topic about the GHostly Lincoln Funeral
Train. It comes around every April. I have no way of knowing if
it was discussed last year at this time and it's always been of
interest to me, so I started a thread about it. It very well could
have been a previous thread, but there is no way for me to know.

check to see how long the person has been here. If it hasn't
been too long, that will explain why you have repeat threads
that you have seen some months before.

Just a thought.

Wait. FF, you've been here since 2004/6/3. Are you saying you don't know about the search function??

You know what drives me crazy? When the first reply to a repeated thread is: "already done before!" (even worse when it's said by someone that's been a member for like two weeks). That's a good way to derail the possibility of an interesting discussion. Let the mod's deal with it.

Well said.
Wouldn´t it be nice with a button (next to "u2u", etc.) in each initial post and call it "report duplicate post"? When you click it you get to provide a link to the post you mean it duplicates. And then the Mods decide if it holds water or not. Leave it out of the discussion...

Ha, I have a solution, just post on the threads by the ones you like the most, actually I post replies on the ATSNN ones, and any clones I just ignore them.

Its been a lot of repeated post from ATSNN news on other threads.

You have to be "selective some times"

let me just remind all, that you are allowed to have a thread in ATSNN and 1 on the board, of the same topic,

And also if you see threads on the same topic just click a mod whos on lines name at the left of the ATS page and they will take a peek at the links and review the issue,
