in reply to Super Searching before you post

I'm amused by this in a very meta way. To me, this is, at the core, a post that newbies should search before posting to avoid duplicate questions. The reason I'm amused is because this is a duplicate - there have been lots of posts recommending those new to PM to search first and ask questions later.

Of course, IMHO, if any node needs to be duplicated avoid the dangers of duplication, it's a request to search first.

Which this is.

So it's good.

So I'm amused.

Definitely a step along the path to enlightenment.

    yes, I was very aware that this is a duplication of many other nodes directing new Monastery members to search before they post.

    I know that I ask palutry questions in the CB and to SOPW, check my previous questions here if you like as examples. I have just had enough of the ^M repeated questions and needed a rant... :)

    IMHO, I imagine that posting repeated concepts such as "search before you post" (a la look before you leap), are somehow required practice while following the unspoken guidelines on the neverending path towards mastery. :)
