Everyone, chill

The numerous posts on the 2006 SSA lists are still on the front page of this board, and are quite accessible by searching or even just scrolling down. And if you wander next door to the Facts Board, several posts regarding the SSA lists are still right up top. Several people have already pointed this out.
As you might have noticed, we tend to love our rules like our firstborn children or equivalent (OK, maybe not that much...). And as those aforementioned several people have also pointed out, we don't like to waste board space, and therefore try not to repeat posts and to consolidate several topics into one thread. These are unofficial rules, true, but a rule nonetheless; most sensible people realise following the unofficial rules of a community/group/society is often vital to proper social interaction within that group, especially online where the communication and interaction is so different from in Real Life.
But even I, an old-timer, have duplicated topics accidentally; most everyone does from time to time. But it's no biggie. When I do this no-no, and it's brought to my attention, I embarrassedly say sorry, shut up, and move on. And that's that.
And if all this makes me an "unhappy person", well, so be it.
