Some bulk posters have the odd and relatively pointless habit of fishing random urls/topics from their threads and reposting them as separate toplevel posts.
This strips them of their context and potentially splits the already ongoing conversation. These are 'follow-up dupes' in HN argot and typically end up moderated away.
