[Opinions] Re: If you had taken the time to read both the original posts,
She was asking for opinions on which one people liked. Because everyone ignore Athena and she wants a more substantial response, she is allowed to ask again. People are allowed to bring up the same name more than once because there may be different people and different opinions the second time around and as long as it's not several times a day, I don't see what your problem is.

She posted the EXACT SAME THING is the problem.WHY is that so difficult to understand? Asking the EXACT SAME THING is a waste of time. If she had reworded it, it would've been fine. But it was THE SAME QUESTION (was it even a question?), even if it had a somewhat different intent.Talking about the same name twice in a short amount of time is also bad.

If a question isn't answered in a satisfactory way the first time, then why can't it be asked again? Maybe that wording was just best for what needed to be said.This question should be treated like any other. If you have something helpful to say, say it. If you don't like it or have anything useful to say, move on and ignore it.

no it can'tEven if she had gotten no respinses at all, it's discouraged to post the same question twice in a limited amount of time, unless maybe there's a specific reason, such as a massive thread taking all the board space right afterwards.And, as far as I can see, Jewell got plenty of feedback on Athena as well, not just responses about Alivia.And, if you dislike this kind of reaction, why don't you just not read it and move on? It's odd how this never works both ways.

It's not the "same question"She posted the same exact thing twice (exact same wording both times), but somehow expected everyone to think it was a different question. Okay, this thread, she wants to know what people think of Athena, BUT SHE DIDN'T SAY THAT IN HER POST. She just said what she said before. "I cannot make up my mind between Alivia and Athena". And she got PLENTY of responses before on Alivia vs Athena. So I linked back to that. And apparently this is an issue to you. If you don't have anything useful to say, move on.
Jewell- next time, if you want a specific kind of answer, type a question that will get you that answer. If you want to know what people think of Athena, say "What do you think of Athena?" not "I can't decide between Alivia and Athena" because then people are going to just tell you which they like better.
