Thread: Double Posting

So I was a little bored today, and I went through the first two pages of the low-invite giveaway and the first page of the mid-level invite giveaways and found a number of instances of double posting (around 14). This got me thinking, are there any instances besides bumping after 48 hours that are permitted? I went through the Master Sticky, and all I found was this:

• Do not spam: this includes double posting, creating more than one intro, & bumping in less than 48 hours.

EXCEPTION TO THE RULE: INTRO THREADS MAY BE BUMPED EVERY 24 HOURS!

So are there reasons that double posting isn't considered spam in less than 48 hours such as double posting to add invites (instead of just modifying the initial post)?

edit: misread OP, apologies.

to my knowledge no. double posting is spam unless bumping 48 hours like you said. you should just edit your first post. Maybe if you can manage to write such a long post that it wont allow you to write anymore in 1 post double posting is okey, but i dont think you will encounter that anytime soon Lol

I agree with JOSH. Unless you are bumping your own thread after 48 hours, there is absolutely no reason that I can think of why you shouldn't be able to just edit your previous post.

Double posting or bumping is not allowed unless 48 hours has gone by. It *is* considered spam and is treated as such. This includes the invite section. Posts such as these sometimes slip by the moderating team but if you see it, please let a moderator know. Thank you.

I don't think double posting by mistake will count as spam :). besides when you hit 55% you'll be able to delete your posts
