So, this thread never got to anywhere and, unsurprisingly, we're seeing not just a continuing set of cross-posts that shouldn't be, but an increase in them. At this point, I'd suggest we start moderating such cross-posts, letting moderators know that they should reject ones that aren't done with any thought to it with a request to the submitter to please pick a list instead of spamming them all. Thoughts?
