Idea about *dupeof.

I know that to call *dupeof on a video you need to have 250 or more starpoints but shouldn't we be able to call *dupeof on our own videos even if we don't have that many starpoints? We can *kill our videos so shouldn't we be able to call *dupeof on them as well?

Oh, and since I have your attention can somebody fix this dead video with the embed from my dupe. (Apparently I misspelled "helicopter" in two different ways.)

Good point. I think anyone who has the ability to * kill or * discard any video should have the ability to call * dupeof, as well. Too often I see those under 250 discarding dupes when they'd invoke dupeof if they had the means to.

Example here, here and here.

I wasn't listening when xxovercastxx said it - but now that Grimsleeper has said it ...

Our idea with dupeof was to try it at a very high level to see if it caused carnage because of mistaken dupes. To date it has not. So I think we should consider lowering it as it's very useful.

With regard to allowing *everyone* to dupeof on their own posts - that's a different matter. with self-discard and kill you are only effecting your own post - so no harm done. But a dupeof also has an effect on someone else's post so I think self dupeof should stay at the same level as regular.
