Ackey Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Never!!! *evil laughs* Seriously though, it stops the board becoming over run with duplicate threads which for people like me who only have limited access is a life saver!!

Diego_Sideburns Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Shouldn't this be merged with the thread about too much merging? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeslover Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Shouldn't this be merged with the thread about too much merging? That suggestion has already been made on another thread Diego. Do keep up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly Mr Shankly Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Never!!! *evil laughs* Seriously though, it stops the board becoming over run with duplicate threads which for people like me who only have limited access is a life saver!! I think you can be guilty of too much merging though Simon. You know, if there's like 15 threads all on exactly the same subject, fair enough. But I keep seeing threads disappearing and not being able to find things. Just my thoughts on it, like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest oa_exile Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 What about this for a crazy idea , what if members stopped posting on the same subject ? .......then their would be no need to merge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Members topics that mirror a similar topic will be merged if it's still new - if the thread is too far down the line, in most cases we'll post a link in the thread but we won't shut down/merge because it disrupts the conversation. New posts hijacking topics just because the poster can't be arsed with the OT will be merged - sometimes this happens about three or four times. It looks like members either can't be bothered to look for like posts, or they have no intention to add to the current thread. Unfortunately the latter is poor form for the topic originator, and is disrespectful. So we'll stop merging when people quit posting the same topics without looking or searching for the exact same thread that was posted recently. It's up to the users ultimately. Cheers, Matt.
