When you double-post, you waste people's time.

The value is that if someone else comes across this thread and wants to comment, they'll know to do it in the other thread, so as not to fragment the discussion.

You'd do well not to get snarky at people who are providing help for free.

For added fun, this is a triple post:

Because, apparently this user wanted to plumb new depths...

In any case, it's the thread in General where people are actually giving answers.
