You want PoE to get better? Please don't duplicate existing threads.

Quantity is an important factor when judging the weight of feedback.
Let us be realistic, you post in a hundred page long discussion and the chance is slim of your point getting across. Everyone that believes they have something that needs to be said really should make their own thread, unless they are aware of saying exactly the same as someone else said. Most of the time, people make new posts because they have a different angle on something, a new take, and want to be heard. In that case it should be done in a new thread for the purpose of that point. Ideas then compete similar to evolution and the strongest will survive the longest. It does in fact serve to purify threads instead, focused by the angle of the original poster. " You are exactly the same, but the reason is not that people seek attention, no they seek attention for what they write, they don't write to seek attention. PS: There is a direct relation between people being recognized for their efforts and the continuation of those efforts. It is natural and normal to seek to make your own threads when you have something to say. I am the light of the morning and the shadow on the wall, I am nothing and I am all.

I was going to make a long posting but it isn't worth the time.
Scrotie, while your postings can be insightful and organized, everything you said in this thread reeks of hypocrisy. You are totally guilty of exactly what you accuse. I don't fault you for it. I think someone should have the freedom to express themselves. If the posting is useless or violates some horridly grey GGG policy, then it dies. There is no problem. The moment that we accept some notion that a desync post from 6 months ago is adequate, and no further discussion is needed, then we have lost. I don't want to get into the politics of saying who should be able to post what, and when. It's a public forum ffs!

well lets see the relevant threads all get locked because of heated discussions and poe fanboys being delusional

in. my humble opinion,moderators should merge topics that are of same nature.
A day ago we had 3 fkin threads that game is dying.you can have any opinion you like,but if replica posts are created,there should be a merge(closure of the other op,then merge with notice that discussion is carried over there). If you give them,as a moderator,the explanation needed for such actions,then soon you will see more quality threads. I dont talk lightly on this.I ve been a forum moderator on a quite famous Mmo and i see what is happening over here. They leave too much unnessary freedom of created posts,where they could do what i suggested. Bye bye desync! Last edited by elwindakos on Apr 14, 2014, 5:53:00 PM

" Not at all. The discussions in the locked threads got out of hand because of the lack of self control and manners of certain users. It doesn't matter if someone is a delusional PoE fanboy or whatever, he can still share a meaningful opinion and defend his stance - however the moment when a user loses temper and derails the thread, and the other user(s) follows the carrot like donkeys, the thread has to be closed. Life is tough... but it is tougher if you're stupid.

" why you selectively neat pick my post? I explained,but let me try again(i am at work on a nokia 6300,lol). As i said if multiple of same nature being done,then they must close the thread and point to the one that existed before those new threads of similar nature. And ofcourse i noticed that there is no merging of threads Bye bye desync!

"This is a self-fulfilling prophecy. If you can expect quality replies to threads, people are more likely to read those replies and respond to them. If you know that replies are always going to be stale and uninteresting, you suddenly need to create a new thread to get attention. Essentially, a bunch of trolls created a trend, and we blindly followed along. "I don't disagree with this, but people seriously split hairs on this one far too much. Simply having a different angle isn't enough, because everyone's got a different angle; there should be significant divergence. And the "most of the time" part is dubious. I'll grant it's pretty close to 50%. "Probably. What of it? I think Garrot has a good point, and I can accept criticism. When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero. Since his life model decoy isn't up to the task, please do not mistake my performance as political discussion. I'm just doing what Steve would have wanted.
