> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Realhoops \* > \*\*… and a question … I’m guessing the point is to _not_ repeat bands that have previously been mentioned, right? \*\* Well, we tried doing that in the last thread, but for certain letters (such as **X** ), there isn’t much you can do about duplicates. But as far as is possible, yes. If you absolutely can’t (say if someone posts Anthrax and you see that XTC has already been used five times over in the thread, but you can’t think of anything else that starts with X…), then it’s not really a problem.
