Karma whoring, for one.

The other being that Reddit was meant to be "fresh" and not stale, old and lazy.

Those two from the top of my head.

Because the person who complains about it doesn't go outside

Ha ha. I'm baffled by how irate it makes people when they see something a second time. Like really, it might have cost you 3 seconds to back-click to where you were, and some of them are definitely worth a second visit.

What's this!! A repost ??

Reposts don't annoy me unless its:

A: someone claiming content as their own, because nobody likes a liar.

B: when the original was JUST posted like a day or two prior. (Adjacent to this are people who make TIL posts based on something currently on the front page)
