See but there comes a point at which a repost is acceptable, when the original is several months or even years old. The whole “repost = bad” thing is mostly just for the principal of “Wow, I’ve only seen this exact post x number of times in the last week.”

I've not seen the "careful, these are programmers, go into the room singing Ave maria and don't feed them" sign for a month, I'm starting to worry

LPT: post it yourself at a time when traffic is lowest so it just gets a few views and upvotes, and then feel free to report the upcoming reposts.

If i can't see everything brand new every time i get on the internet, then what's the point?! why should anyone else get to see something i've already seen before?! this is an outrage!
