It would really help if people did a search of the topic before starting new threads, and be politely directed to existing threads in the second post instead of having new threads develop a life of their own. The number of threads about the same topics is getting silly now. It might also help if people didn't try to be too clever or oblique in the thread title, but instead used a useful descriptor of the thread being started.
ETA: This is not meant as an attack on the OP as it appear he did search first. It is a more general issue.
I completely agree. But I'm also aware it's human nature and something we need to figure out rather than ineffectually rail against, as much as I like a good rant. It's been a thing on every forum I've ever been on: I remember lolling at someone's goodbye topic some thirty years ago on my then employer's forums (some homebrew thing running on an MVS mainframe... if anybody needs their interest in computing curtailing, just use MVS for a bit and you'll lose the will to live) which expressed similar frustration where he stated, "I'd like to say goodbye to all the people selling their car... and a special goodbye to everyone else!"
Of course I'm completely above that sort of behaviour... well actually, I'm not. Turns out maybe I am human, or at least goblin.
