Re: has there been a huge influx..

Cross posting is posting the same topic on more than one board.

Re: has there been a huge influx..

Doesn't seem out of control yet to me, but who knows.

Re: has there been a huge influx..

I think there is more wrong board posts..posting than anything else

OOH! I am guilty of that one!

Re: has there been a huge influx..

Wait, do you mean when someone posts the topic o the wrong board and has no clue, or when people like me are not thinking and they think they are posting on one board, then they realize they set up on wrong board so they edit to say 'sorry wrong board' then go to the right one?

Cause I am guilty of the latter.

Re: has there been a huge influx..

I think there has always been a lot of cross-posting on these boards, which mainly happens because inevitably certain boards get far more traffic than other boards..

that and sometimes you just want advice/comments/opinions from a wide array of posters, and some of us tend to stick to the same boards as a habit (I know I am on NWR 90% of the time and sometimes would not even see a particular post unless it was pointed out to me)

Re: has there been a huge influx..

I just think there are titles of boards FOR A REASON....
Otherwise there would be only ONE BOARD (God help us if there was)

Oh goodness, wouldn't that be a disaster.... we'd definitely get our wish for constant 'drama' if there was only ONE board

And to think silly me when I first came onto LIWs I thought there was only BHB ...

eta: when I finally ventured over to NWR, I had something like 5 posts, and the preliminary OFC jumped all over me cause my wedding date said 2010 cause I hadn't figured out how to change it yet!!!
