Ah, now I understand. There is no rule but everyone is to somehow
realize that 8 months is too soon to ask for a repost.

"Each Time"..."Constantly"...??? Except for once asking for a repost,
in alt.binaries.tv, for some corrupted files that didn't have enough
pars, I've NEVER made a repost request. So don't try to make it look
like I'm someone who makes a habit of requesting recently posted files.
I have no idea why you have adopted the attitude you have taken...nor do
I care. My impression of the members of this newsgroup was that they
are nice, helpful people.
With, apparently, one exception...as you already mentioned:
