that means you haven't the whole FAQ, if you want to know whether the discussion you are about to start is there or not try searching for the article word by word, if you do not find any article matching your search, try searching with the whole text of your article, if you still do not find a match, it means there is no discussion started with that article and go ahead and strat your discussion.

i think what mylot is after are those people who deliberately copy word for word discussions and responses posted by others. i've seen a couple already, but i'm wondering how one could detech who copied from whom.

You can search discussion first before you start a new discussion. if you think you are not copy paste then I can tolerate for that. just don't do it again. do search first about the topic try following mylot guidelines so we can make quality is better in here.

well ,do you search before u start a discussion.do you know this world is very fast , that within the time u are searching for a topic,people are creating so many discussions, on the topic you are searching for . then your time will goes on for searching itself.

I dont think they are complaining about the topics being the same but that someone else is taking and copying and pasting an entir response and or discussion ie I could hilight yur discussion and copy and paste it here if I wanted to. (no I am not going to do that) but that is what some have done. they dont type the just copy it to their clip board and then when they respond they paste it back in. that is what I believe it to be all about. plus any discussion you create might be just a little bit different

I thought if I did a search at the top of the page for the topic I wanted to post, and it is not there then I 'm safe. Not it doesn't work. I have searched for a topic it was not there so I posted it. And then there is one close to it. So I don't know what to do.

most efficient way of increasing your earnings is to work hard at posting useful topics; answer as many topics as you can relevantly, sensibly and with as many words as possible and to endeavour to get as many hard-working referrals as possible!

if you have not copied the other's
discussion then you need not worry .
I have also faced this & I wish I
could delete my own discussion . sad
it is not possible here at present .
And in one of comments I said that
this discussion already exists at a
earlier discussion on this site . And
also given the link of old topic .
