It's giving me something to do. I like going back and forth. When the pages are merged, I'm gonna have some posts that don't make any sense.

Just please don't leave the two pages of discussion of Pistonrager's trick of posting the link hours before it actually went up. I mean golfclap for working out the link structure, but it was detrimental to the actual discussion of the article once it was posted.

What's aggravating is that the one guy didn't even look to see if it was already posted, and the other guy KNEW it was already posted and did it anyway. I give big kudos to the guy who posted it early in the hopes of preventing the Scoop spamming that happens here every couple days.

I strongly disagree. I think the repost when it was actually up was beneficial. The early claim staking post (which you praise) was bogged down in a tangent by then. I hope that tangent does not get merged.

As I said, posting the link before it was up was actually detrimental to the discussion of the post.

From my perspective, it wasn't the timing that ruined the post, but the people inside that cramped it with junk.

I'd agree that one post early on would stop the competitive garbage of being first.

It didn't need to be. I maintain that someone should make one thread ten minutes or so before the article goes up, and all other threads about it should be locked. It was only because it was the first time anyone has done that, and because it was done 10 hours early that it devolved into sillyness.

Point taken, but how do you avoid that devolution? Lock the thread and disable new topics until the excerpt goes live?

The only reason the early post took so long to start getting replies was because of the time of day it was posted. Look how thick and fast the nonsense came once folks woke up and logged in.
