It's really not an issue of offending someone, but of wasting peoples' time. Those who make a habit of cross-posting without either providing links or acknowledging the fact they've already received help on an issue very soon find no-one willing to help them. I have also known a number of people to be banned from some forums for repeatedly breaching this basic convention.
