The second post was about an hour after the first, which means lots of people would have already read the first post and would miss reading anything added to it later. It makes sense to "double post" under those circumstances. The entire reason for posting at all is to impart information.
I believe that you're wrong about this, Inge. As far as I know, editing your post will make it re-appear as a new (unread) post, so there's no need to double post at this site. You may be thinking about the MTS2 behavior, which leaves the status of a post as "read", even when it's been edited.
Zazazu:
Just chiming in to confirm that editing does make the post appear new again. This has confused me in the past.
Lorelei:
The whole point of not double posting is that IF no one has responded to your AMAZING BORING post, you can edit it. If they have, reply to their reply. Double-posting assumes that everyone rushed to read your words of brilliance irrelevant drivel and simply could not find words eloquent profane enough to express how fucking impressive stupid it was.
Inge, as a Senator, you need to read the FAQ and uphold it. "No double posting" isn't a suggestion, it is a forum guideline. So far you have professed ignorance, real or feigned, about Senate proceedings, several rules covered in the FAQ, and multiple cultural standards of MATY. You've also encouraged other MATY people to act like retards and to flout the rules. If you're trying to be controversial or to shit-stir, UR DOIN IT WRONG, and you haven't seemed to be particularly dense in the past. In fact, I would have said, a few months back, that you were pretty smart and "with it."
For SRS, if Senators can't be arsed to do their homework, perhaps their position is too much responsibility or strain on them, and perhaps they should offer to be be delaureled until they have time to put the minimum effort forth to keep up with even the slowest kids in the class. This is why we wait a while before offering positions to new people, even those who seem to grok how MATY works.
Are you using aluminium cookware on a frequent basis? Just wondering.

Thank you my Mistress for making me spit water all over my keyboard. It needed a clean anyway.

Oh good. I double-posted the other night for this reason. Now I can stop double-posting and attend my 12 step meeting with a clear conscience. ;D
