One big thread = more ffective than a lot of small ones

Naw, the WHM 4.0 thread did jack to change anything and it was over 350 pages long.

Large threads are no guarantee the devs will care what you have to say. It's just the best way to get their attention on something.

Designers and developers are under absolutely no obligation to do what their forum tells them to do.

In other words, putting it all in one thread does nothing.

Well ok but that's not what I said at all. I said large threads were the best way to get attention on a particular topic. More condensed feedback, less noise.

It just doesn't guarantee the devs will agree with you and do what you say. Nothing does that.

I'm just more intrigued as to what the problems with WHM's are. They've been given more service than the other healers in my opinion.

On the other hand, multiple threads for the same topic just annoys people, which means the threads fill up with dismissive comments and negativity that don't accomplish anything. And needlessly floods the front page of the forums.

To be fair, the large threads are only better by slight margin. A reccuring thing about them is the back and forth slugfest that can go on for dozens of pages before it finally gets back on topic. And if the topic is can't even reach a single common point? That pretty much sends the idea that we don't know what we want.

Spamming multiple threads on the same topic when there are already mega threads about it is just going to resort to your post getting deleted or it fading into obscurity. The more people that post in one consolidated thread the longer it stays on the front page and shows the developers that we want feedback, not that they are obligated to respond of course. The Male Viera thread and the DF thread are prime examples of this. If you want them to take your feedback seriously, just post in the threads already discussing the topic.
