No I didn't seek a kudos, I just started the thread.

If Master Ozzy had started one, I wouldnt have made one. He/she did it to get the 'big thread', the kudos etc..

Why do that? Why make a thread that already has been made?? That already has 20+ replies?? WHY?!

Dont' forget the thread "TOO MANY THREADS" from Wednesday night. So this is a duplicate of a duplicate of a duplicate.

I even posted a link to the original thread early but recieved pathetic remarks such as 'this one's better' 'this one's cosier'

I alert the mods via PM and the alert button and no merge takes place.

Does it matter? Just post in whichever has become the most popluar regardless of whether it was started after yours.

Yes, in moaning about duplicate threads wasting space, you have both wasted space and duplicated a thread.

Please excuse me having a funny little laugh at your expense.”

Oh good one, a 2 minute gap in between.

I didn't see that thread. The gap between mine and Ozzy's was 10 minutes at least.

ALSO, his/her thread is on the amount of threads about MAXWELL and mine is about the fact that Master Ozzy felt the need to reproduce the existing thread.

I can't believe this..

Okay every day I encourage all to start an eviction thread, whoever's gets popular can win the race for the day and have their thread go the distance

I think i'm going to start a thread where I complain about people complaining about posts.

I just hope nobody else does likewise, since I'd look a little bit dozy if that happened.

Yes, and these thread-starting reprobates seem to think that the more exclamation or question marks they put on a thread title the more people will want to click on it.

I tend to ignore any thread title which has more than one question or exclamation mark.

You're so dumb!

I suppose you think you are at the height of maturity with your dismissal of this thread?

How dare you!
What I hate is that I even posted a redirect but some people decided to stay there for a nice big split.”

I can't stand all the people who hang their heads in disgust about threads like this...

what about the duplicates? Are they all okay? I suppose so!

And there it ends.

I do agree that duplicate threads are very frustrating. I have had to close rather than merge duplicates tonight as it takes ages to merge threads when the servers are busy.

Those who persitantly start duplicates will be warned and/or banned.
