For all the deals that people post for free here, I find it sad that people are too lazy to look through the 31-page [ahem :-?] thread. People who post these deals put time in effort into this, yet the beneficiaries treat them like an entitlement. If those who complain would step up and help organize contributions, then I have no issue. Even worse are the lurkers who take this information and run. I'd take it a draconian step further and lock down this thread to those who contribute only. My frustration after having given a lot more than I've received. :evil: What you want for nothing, rubber biscuit? Oh, and my thanks and admiration for those who are generous enough to post their gems.
I also find it bizarre that people ask for things they could easily Google themselves, but that's an issue for another day.
I get where you are coming from for the most part. What I used to find frustrating was the repost of a deal that was already posted. Apparently, it was too hard to sift through past posts to see if a deal was already reported. Then I came around and thought that sometimes repeating deals helps those who need the help, either due to lack of time, familiarity, or desire to trudge through the past. For those of us who have been active since the summer it is a little frustrating since this thread could be about a third of the current size.
Nick - a thought for next year - a summary thread that does not allow replies but by a few yet able to be read my all so repeats are reduced. It can be fed by a thread like this. I would be more than happy to manage it if you needed help!
