Avoiding Reposts

[Sonic_GT]

I've been noticing a lot of reposts lately. As well all know, then has been an issue since the Ken Block era. So, how bout people label a video that they are posting the same name as the original content? For example, "Guy gets hit with ice cream truck". If you're gonna post up the vid, label it the same thing instead of "Darwin at work" or something witty.
It would certainly:
Clean up the pics and vids
Avoid people b*tching about reposts
Be easier to determine if the vid as already been posted by using the search feature

Anyway, just my opinion.

"Re-posts" are not re-posts for everyone.

just because it's a repost for some, doesn't mean it's a repost for everyone.

Search function has omitted the 'repost' word because it is a common word.

True but sometimes it gets out of hand with 5 or more threads about the same thing and they are all titled differently. All I'm saying is that people should consider it and maybe it'll help to avoid repetition. JMO

I definitely agree with the "multiple threads re-post" problem. :beer:

Mama says reposts are the devil!

Reposts are not environmentally friendly.

when things are reposted...is it really a big issue if something is a repost? does it really bother someone so bad to see something more than once enough to spend energy telling us you have already seen it.

i would rather see a good reppost....than someone bitching about a repost.

The time you've just spent writing this, you could have viewed at least 2 good reposts

Its more of a matter of filtering through the stuff thatss already been posted numerous times. As you know, when someone creates a thread the others get bumped down to the 2nd, 3rd, 4th pages etc. It would be easier to avoid a thread if the title was somewhat relevant to what the thread contains. A recent example is the raffle ticket thread. There are some threads that are titled more appropriately than others.
Example.
Probably should have been in pics/vids but hey title kinda indicates what the thread is about

Now this. Catchy title but oh wait....

Not only that but the guy starts another thread about the same thing

It's not really my cup of tea...but, I understand the appeal for a lot of folks. I find the styling took direct cues from....
