If it's a small spot with hardly any content, or it's new photos/videos that have been made like that day and I can see no-one's added them then I don't bother. But for things like quiz questions and picks, I always do.

i agree i try to do when i'm not sure if something already exsists because repeat content bugs me lol

hmmm it depends but i usually forget

it depends...for example if i'm adding icons and there are 50000 of them, no i don't look through them i just add them. whereas if i'm on a spot that only has like 200 i'll look for them

it will tell you whether the links been added fora video or not so thats fine.

when it comes to quiz questions and picks i really to but again if there are 10000 picks like on the one tree hill spot i'm not looking through them all but i'll try to make sure it wasn't just asked recently.

not to mention that people around here do not tag their content properly most of the time which makes searching annoying!!!!!!!!!

i know what you mean about the tagging it does make it harder

I do look up stuff, but since proper keywords are rarely added to uploaded content, I can't be held responsible if I post duplicate items.

exactly i agree if i don't see it in the first couple of pages on the home page of the spot and it doesn't show up when i search the keywords then i assume that its not there and post it
