It is already being discussed

Greetings everyone. I am fealing very altruistic today so I am going to help out the community a bit. I am sure many of you are sick of 5 threads discussing Lahabrea, 3 discussing the UFO and 10 talking about the Machinists. Now I can't make them disappear but I will make a catalogue of topics that have multiple threads already. This way people who are uncertain wether they should make a new thread for something, will know where to look.

There. I hope this will prove helpful in preventing floods or redundant threads pushing back important discussions to page 10 and later. and I wish you all a good time on the forums.

Wow this guy. What a team player, what a Rogue

Added oner more for bard and alexander each. People seem to love redundant threads.

EDIT: And yet another for alexander.

No, don't do this, now there is going to be a dozen threads categorizing all of the other threads!

Just so you are aware, people don't usually make redundant threads because they are unaware the topic is already being discussed. They see that the topic is more than a few pages long and worry thier view will be buried in the thread so they make a new one just to make sure thier incredibly important opinion is seen by everyone.

And then we'll have a thread to categorize the categorizing threads.

On top of that, if they are unaware, how would they even know to look for this thread...

A lot of people are not really familiar on how forum boards work. They just get in and create their thread as if this were Facebook. It's hard to control that.

It's hard, but at least I know that I did everything in my power as a not-mod. To give it a seblance of order. It might only help my own consciousness in the end, but at least it helps with that.

And I truly appreciate it! I hope it helps to minimize these repeated discussions. We can always refer them to this thread instead of looking for the existing one.

In theory, if you stopped even one repeat thread, then it was worth it.
