Recently I posted a message to said poster who had posted the same message TWICE to two sepperate boards... The nature of this message was clearly meant for the Social board (or even the Faith board if you read enough of it).I polietly gave the poster instructions to a) post to the appropriate board, b) post to only ONE board for the same message, and c) refrain from discussing religious matter unless posting on the faith board. We've discussed the reasons for this, and thats why the board exists.
His post which is a SPAM double post on TWO boards at the same time, inclusisve of being on the *meds* board despite having nothing to do with medication, (reflections of LOU anyone..) still remains, yet my post is deleted... Can someone give me some answers about this.
Disapointed.
A.

I noticed that post, and it was not just on two boards, it was on four that I saw. I didn't really enjoy seeing the same identical post on multiple boards. It makes it look like spamming. Is there a policy against cross-posting? If not, how about creating one?

4!?? I think it's an unwritten rule... But perhaps it should be explicitly stated for those people who have the urge to to spam their message to as many boards as possible... Yikes... 4??
