Request Moderator's Attention

[alzado]

I discovered an identical double post on two forums and complained.

The person who posted said that because it was important, it deserved multiple postings.  She even said I was mistaken -- it was not a double posting, but had been duplicated three times on different forums.  The topic, as I can best remember, is something like "Why Can't Jenny Play the Piano?"  The motive appeared to be to direct visitors to another site where the poster had placed an article on piano pedagogy.  In other words, it was somewhat self-promotional.

The individual was rather cheeky, I thought, and seemed to indicate this is her right, and she will do exactly as she pleases.

You can do as you want, but I believe this tends to create chaos.  I really think the moderators should -- at the least -- consolidate the responses to all these duplicated topics into one place.

It might be fitting also, to inform such individuals in a polite way that such reduplicated postings of the exact same message across different forums are  . . . inappropriate.

I agree with you 100%. Double posting is unnecessary as members can get notices via e-mail of new posts anyway, (at least I do).

It seems to have become a trend... I've seen more double posts after that one...
It's not only stupid but annoying since people say on one post that their reply is on the other one and we must go around from post to post to read the discussion

lenkaolenka's posts are nothing but blatant advertising for her product.  She has done it at other piano teaching sites and she is now doing it here.  She is relentless in insulting any method of teaching piano other than using her own software.

Please Please Please do something about this ongoing advertising in duplicate and triplicate posts!

If I see more advertising, double posting or flame posts, I'm going to try to use the report to moderator button more often.
Maybe it's mostly our fault for not using it...
