This may help avoid such problems for both parties:

Who cares if someone posts to several sites. The sooner I get an answer the
better as far as I'm concerned.

Keep it up Eddie. Don't let them get at you.

Lots of people care! I am *not* one of them - post in many places and get an

agreed that the solution worked. He then posted the same original question
here, after already solving the problem and complained when we pointed that
out.

Cross-posting instead of multi-posting solves the problem.

How do you cross-post to a vBulletin forum and Usenet?
