Band Hero, GH Van Halen, & GH World Tour $5 @ Big Lots

He's really not. CAG is getting a ton of re-posts these days. People post first, think second. Mods don't seem to care. They'll just use their mod functions if there's a spammer or a fight, but rarely to clean up re-posts.

If most of the repost first posters cared they'd simply close their own thread and bump the pre-existing one. Most don't. But again, there's no incentive for people to check for pre-existing threads, other than if they want to avoid getting snarky remarks in their thread.

I'm sure you meant to call me something nice but damn auto-correct jumped in again huh
 
I'd rather get a deal twice then not at all. Why do you guys have to be dicks? Say thanks and be on your way.

Thank you op I appreciate the heads up.

If all we did was say thanks, people would post the same deals countless times for self-satisfaction, and this website would be overflowing with redundant information. We have to be dicks to discourage continuous repetition of the same deals. Hell, if everyone were like you, I'd make my own Big Lots topic and vie for gratuitous comments as well.

I am pretty sure this is at least the 3rd time this has been posted. Once before Christmas when it actually started, once after and then now. This deal is probably dead at most locations, I know it is at the one closest to me.

Where do we draw the line on redundancy because the smart ass comment wasn't needed considering someone else had already pointed it out already. They just wasn't a complete douchebag about it.

Right, because being a dick has done a great job of preventing multiple posts so far. You can't possibly think that someone's going to think "Oh my, I'd better not post this deal because someone on the internet might be mean to me!" It doesn't make one bit of a difference. And the idiotic remarks are just as redundant (if not moreso) than the reposts. They are certainly more counterproductive. More often than not, a repost shows me a deal that I wouldn't have seen otherwise. Also more often than not, someone's snarky attitude derails the thread and turns it into some kind of bitchfest. If reposting is such a big deal, it would make much more sense to simply point it out (as Decker did) and request action from a mod. Done deal.

I get it: being a dick is fun. Putting faceless strangers (or homeless people) down without ever having to confront them or face any consequences makes you feel better about yourself. Big deal, most of us do it. But let's not try to pretend that it actually helps in any way. I know you're not really that stupid.
