I do that frequently with my model train hobby. I frequent two model train forums, and if I have a question I will often post the same thing on both forums. It's not because I don't trust the advice of people on one forum...it's just because it allows me to get more feedback and get it faster. Copy and paste is a great feature that prevents me from having to type the whole thing over again. <br><br>Besides....what difference does it make?? You don't HAVE to read it twice just because someone posts it twice. Lighten up... :

I personally don't mind either way. I think when guys do that, they're leveraging the knowledge and experience of 19000 members vs 4300. Makes a big difference in terms of how many responses you might get. As we grow, I think you'll see people do that less often. I don't think it happens often anyway to be honest.

Isn't the whole point of posting a question to gain more knowledge on the subject being asked about? If that is the case, then what's wrong with trying to gain a broader base of knowledge on a certain topic by posting on more than one site in an effort to, as you say, broaden knowledge? I think you've already answered your own question... :
