For the Benefit of Everyone In The Contest, Please Read

This isn't a huge topic to discuss, but I've realized something that I don't think anyone has pointed out yet; correct me if I'm wrong. For the past few days I have logged onto this website and have noticed that every so often someone will post the same blog twice in a row. I don't know if it is some type of computer glitch (such as the page won't load after you submit it and try pushing the submit button another time) and it happens or if the blogger does it; if it's the latter, please stop.
Why should you stop if you do it one purpose:
For one, this is supposed to be a contest. As we all know, for every blog that you post it's 50 points. If you post the same thing twice, you gain 100 points. To me, this is very unfair. If I took time to write about two topics and gain 100 points that's right; if you only write one blog and decide, "Hey, I'll post this twice to get more points" and you get 100 points, plus all the comments telling you that you posted twice, it's just unfair.
Another reason, it takes up space in the "Most Recent" section.
Please, only post your blog once. Thank you.

You can delete your posts.

Go to the top of the blog, and click the "edit" tab. At the bottom there is a "delete" button. That'll do the trick, and save us a lot of time.

I've been noticing that lately too.

In my mind I'm saying "that must be really important to be on there that many times"...lol

I always flag one post for the mods. They always pull it down if they are alerted to it.
