Yeah GB, I can see that

Im not botthered by the duplicate info (we've all done it)

........what worries me is the confusion it causes. New users dont get how things work on GR...censuses.BMDs etc. Then they are loaded with all our duplicate info.............................


ten times over ;-)

I almost always delete if someone has posted the same info before me.

It can look confusing to the poster

What annoys me if when after I have posted info that a member goes back and updates their post with the same infomation. Has already happened tonight. Without getting personal it is usually the same member.

Quite often delete if I am duplicating another post but that is usually because I have forgotten to hit the refresh button.

PLEASE DO NOT: send me information concerning your thread on the board as it should be posted on your request where all members can see it. PLEASE DO NOT: ask me for help with lookups as they should be placed on the boards to get the best possible result. PLEASE DO NOT: open your tree just because I have posted information on your thread as I will not be related. THANK YOU. Researching Carter, Cass and Walker in England.

You know when we all duplicate info on the help threads..................

Do you think it might be a good idea to delete the info if someone has posted it before....once, twice, or more

I try to delete if I see the duplication but dont see every one of course
