    Maybe if they were stricter with that sorta stuff it wouldn't happen as much. On several forums I used to frequent they'd close or merge duplicates, I don't see that happening here, not often anyway.

    Yeah seriously, it's hard to say "The devs avoid this place because of all those threads about the same issue!" Well maybe if those who ran the forums closed or merged duplicate threads and actually responded to some all those various thread topics it wouldn't happen.

    Like.. It's easy to say "If we were more like the JP forums we'd get responses!" but until we start seeing more active work on the dev/CM side of it, I find this hard to believe. Yes, the NA community could do a better job in looking out for similar problems, but not even the big and popular threads get responses.

    Plus it still doesn't address the issues of who's threads are "special snowflake" (God I hate that word..) and who's threads are legitimate.

    It's not going the way of WoW unless the 3.X patch cycle consists of one raid and Twitter integration.

    It also helps that the game's developers all speak Japanese and that most Japanese gaming companies focus more on the Japanese market then on the global market.

    I agree with this.
    We need moderators that will direct people to one thread when multiple threads are being made and/or move things to the correct forums.
    Also, an official thread for each job wouldn't be bad either versus a player made thread.
