Can we have a norm of using the Custom Search bar to check if a quote has already been posted?
by "have a norm of" you mean "mention explicitly in the monthly threads that this is a norm", right? As, as far as I can see, this norm pretty much seems to exist already.
Yes, I think this should be mentioned explicitly in the monthly threads.
My intentions were to decrease future occurences of duplicate posts, establish a standard of effort that should go into avoiding duplicate posts, and not hit Johannes' comment too hard because it was made before the standard was expressed and agreed upon.
Oops. I do feel a bit embarrassed for just assuming that the strip in question was recent enough not to have been posted to last month's thread. Voted in favor of the proposed norm.
I vote in favor - do you want to make a poll of it?
Edit: My vote is now registered in the poll.
Poll: vote this up if you are in favor of the proposed norm. (And vote down the Karma Balance comment.)
Poll: vote this up if you are against the proposed norm. (And vote down the Karma Balance comment.)
Why is this voted down? Poll procedure would have this comment voted up or the other up and the karma balance down.
I find it troubling that we have to kludge a poll out of comments and upvotes.
I find it awesome that we routinely kludge whatever we need out of whatever's on hand.
No less impressive is that we occasionally notice the need.
If we begin to have a lot of polls (I admit, it's looking that way at the moment), we should request programming a new polling feature.
