> Yes, it is annoying. I once put a lot of effort into researching a natural benzodiazepine-like compound, but I had to post it on Alternative and hardly anyone goes there. Only one person that actually goes there bothered to reply to it, and I was bitterly disappointed that it didn't get more attention/admiration. Is it illegal to post on one of the 'lesser' boards then send up a flare on Main to alert the herd, possibly with a link?

It is not considered civil to double post, that is, to duplicate one post on another board; but putting a link would be perfectly suitable.It was just a week or so ago that I posted begging a reply on the Social board, asking for replies for threads I'd started elsewhere. Desperate times call for desperate measures. I would not have done so if I hadn't, in fact, felt desperate.
