Every sink I've had, the overflow was integrated into the sink and there
was only the one drain connection at the bottom. Other types might exist,
but so far it seems HomeMoaners are the only folks finding them, buying
drain pipes with "holes on the sides", etc.

A vessel sink vs a standard sink use differnt tail pipe drains. A
vessel sink doesn't have an overflow. HomeMoaner may have bought the
wrong part? No, not possible.



IDK, but if you have a sink that has just one drain hole, like most
and you're buying a drain assembly, you would think if the pipe had extra
holes you'd figure out WTF was going on before buying it and
putting it in. But, heh, that's just the way I do things.


...but But BUT, we are talking about HomeMoaners here.

I suspect many of the posts there are just fake spam, designed to try
to build traffic for the website. It's hard to believe people could
be that dumb. Also, if you notice, most times it's a one hit wonder.
They ask some inane question and are then never heard from again.
