The title of the thread is repeated in the body of the thread and then the title of the thread is repeated in posts on the thread that refer to the title of the thread.

Actually it refers to the recurring phenomenon of titles being repeated in the body of threads on FR. A most perplexing abnormality indeed as when a reader uses a title to gauge whether the article is of any consequence then proceeds to inquire further only to find where there should be continuing information, they are greeted with the title again. This practice of repeating the thread title in the body of the post where the rest of the article should be found leads many freepers to disregard the entire post on the grounds of poor craftsmanship in spite of the possibility that crucial information could be missed. We here at FreeRepublic know what it takes to present you with quality news leads in an efficient and effective form and will work to see that this issue will not have to be brought up after this point.

Point!
