Default 'I posted this thread before...'

I have to be honest, i get cautious when posting on here now because someone is bound to yell 'ahh stolen my thread or i've already posted this'
My bad for not tracking everyone...but yer take in to account people, we don't see all threads on here and it's obvious people will have similar/same ideas.
So don't make a big deal about it.

Anyways, what would you like to see im the sims 3?
+ Isit really true the Grim Reaper isn't in the game anymore...?

I'm pretty sure the grim reaper will be in the game... It's still a sims game lol.

In The Sims 3, I want the basics covered and more. It's hard to explain but i'm sure you've tagged on

Every thread on this board seems to be a replica of another now. Including this.

actually if they dont like it they are allowed to say as such. if people didnt do this sort of thing wed all have everything how we dont want it...yes pretty much everything, of course not everything can go our way but we still want as much as possible doing so

but even if someone says theyve already posted it it doesnt mean they are mad. there just stating it and want others to see their topic as even though a topic can be about the same thing, different points may be made in either one

i could be an *** right now and reverse your logic by saying if you dont like how people post here...then dont post here >_>

but that goes against my logic, as i i still believe people are allowed to express distaste for something

but yeah i want the reaper back also, but apparently it wont return

i understand some people might not like what people post, but they shouldn't be mean/sarcastic about something just because someone didn't know a certain thread was made before.

and i want to know about the sims 3 so i will continue to post here and wont let people drive me away from something i take interest in.

yeah i can see why its not wanted when they get all mad over that they posted it first but still, they are going to and you cant conrole that, whether it bothers you or not

no im not fussed over some topic being the same, its bound to happen and others who posted it next might not have seen it before so yes again its no reason to get mad at them posting it. and like i said its good to have muliple topic of the same topic becuase

1. they may have differeng points inside them

2. one might die and people will miss it, if its posted again by someone else people will see that other person feels the same and it may attract others that missed the first one

but yeah, people should be cautious about posting the same thing but its going to happen so yes, if someone else posts it, dont get mad that you also did. but expressing distaste for it is acceptable if it gets out of hand and theres 4 topics all bunched up together about the same thing

it doesn't matter if there is a really old thread on the subjest that is on like page 10 but when there is a resent one it becomes really annoying reading the same things over and over!!!!!

We have a new addition to the forum community every week!, it would make sense to re-post or create a new thread with the same principle 'cause every one has different opinions and ideas, a new one is guaranteed with a new member.

We do ask that you use the search if possible to see if any questions have been answered before and that you check on at least the first page or two or a busy forum such as this one to see if there is a thread already on the subject that you wish to speak about.

There are often threads about things such as release dates, console titles, what you want to see, changing ratings, traits, the site, VIP, murder etc. which end up asked repeatedly with another often only one or two threads down the page. This moves other topics further back and are then less likely to be seen by people who are browsing.

However, it is not a good idea to bump an old thread that is waaaay back, especially if you have nothing of any great importance to add to it

no one will be angry at you if its a different idea than the usual

e.g washing machines, bunkbeds etc.

but people are bound to get frustrated when the same thread is being made over and over again especially if its something thats obviously already been posted

e.g 'what do you want in sims3' & 'release date?'

stuff like that has obviously already been posted wether you've seen those threads or not you just know through common sense its already been posted.

Don't give a hoot what they think, so what they don't own the thread. you might have a different concept to it that you think many others would agree. Just do it if you think that its appropriate for a thread, we're all pretty mature here!

don't read them then. they're bound to be titled nearly the same, so don't read a 'similar' thread, no one's forcing you to, ok!!!?

look at you both stressing out

>_>

i can see the point behind both...well points really

but still similar topics like mazdor said might have a different concept to it where the two concepts dont go with each other....but you really should look to see if its already been posted if its the same as what your thinking...but if its a diffrent take i see no problems.

but theres the acceptable exception with muliple topics the same though, its bound to happen

I think that this has run it's course now. As stated above, please do your research before posting a thread so as not to clog up the forum
