Not trying to spark any kind of feuds here on this site... I actively read many posts made by folks here, even if I rarely participate myself.

But the above comment by Nighthawk has spurred my curiosity. The Film Noir Classic IV post was reported earlier, true... and then another member posted about it again, yesterday. Aside from that comment being redundant, is there any particular reason why someone should feel it necessary to point that out? Is there a rule on this site that whoever first reports about Noir news gets a monopoly on it...and anyone else who may have missed their annoucement should be dismissed, instead of being thanked for their effort? Or at the very least.... perhaps just ignore the post, instead of announcing their tardiness to the conversation.

I wasn't trying to be snarky, so I'm sorry if it came across that way. I just thought that, more than anything else, it was kind of funny that the last several posts in the thread were almost all about that exact same title, and then it was announced again.

The other post was on the previous page, must have missed it.
I feel so ashamed.
I shall crawl into a cave and die! JK!
