No, it isn't. Seven upvotes and zero comments don't count as having had attention. Please read the FAQ linked at the bottom.

> Seven upvotes and zero comments don't count as having had attention

Nothing about that in the FAQ or guidelines (please link if I missed it) and it was just one day after the linked submission.

I am not reprimanding anyone. Indicating a dupe allows mods to merge the posts (and no, I'm not setting up a new e-mail account just for that).

If you did post it within the past year, that submission is not showing up in search (unless you're operating multiple accounts to facilitate your high post rate..?).

Personally I'm glad OP did a repost that did get traction attention but I don't get the assumed hostility here at all.

Usually, even at zero comments, a story that has been posted the day before is considered a dupe.

That said, I'm happy this time around it got more attention.

That has never been the case.

But sure, everyone can have their opinions and interpretations. It's just bad form to reprimand others when it's not clearly rooted in the group consensus. Doubly so when it's about my own prior submission that didn't get attention.
