I fully agree. This, as well as a handful of other very well written blogs, should be highlighted more appropriately (I know there's Community Highlights, but some blogs can be taken further).

There are many duplicate threads, granted these can be partially attributed to a poor search feature so this case is a little more understandable (I've searched on many occasions for threads I know exist but search refuses to list them). On the other hand, duplicate posts on threads just shows that people either don't read previous posts, don't understand the posts, and/or post in close succession.

I used to love helping people in the forums but now the experience is more of annoyance because of people that don't follow the guidelines listed in this great blog.
