Especially to @doubleonothing for being so understanding and professional about the issue. Looking forward to some changes.
Wow, is that your best argument? I wouldn't expect an Eve-level rookie to understand this, but I do indeed have a life, one very involved and demanding. We all have things that keep us busy, but also the stuff that makes us happy to be involved in. For me, it is this site which is built around the character of James Bond, one I dearly love and have an insatiable desire to get all the knowledge I can on. If anything the amount of time I am on this forum is a testament to my dedication for it, a statement I am confident my fellow veteran members can back up. I have made myself even more vigilant since we have had several troll attacks (another thing you couldn't begin to comprehend) so that I can be here to do my part and flag the vile posts spouted by the said trolls. They, not I are the ones with seemingly nothing else to do but spam this forum with pictures of graphic content and posts of crude vitriol.
If in the future you attempt to criticize me further, do be more clever about it. You would assume a man in his 40s would be a bit more cunning in his arguments, which in this case boiled down to the disappointing "you post a lot!" I guess Q was right in Skyfall when he said, "Age is no guarantee of efficiency."
I only posted that to joke around, @doubleonothing. Nothing sinister. ;)
Actually, this site has ridiculously simple rules which should make a micromanagement perfectly sufficient, if only people would stick to them.
But if on the one hand people complain that there are too many threads to browse through, and on the other hand keep creating duplicate threads, why of course you create problems.
Agreed. Even if people are having difficulty using the search function, there's always google. Simply type the words of a relative discussion and add mi6 ground or something to that effect and stuff should come up. This should in no way even be an issue. I personally think people are too lazy and then feel aggrieved when they get called up on it.
Should something like this be opened again?
Of course there is no need for duplicate threads. If some noob pops in tomorrow and starts a thread called "Whats your favorite Bond film?", I imagine no one will complain when that thread gets locked. But I think we need to be careful of "over-consolidation" by closing or merging threads that have ANY overlap or relation. Even more so when the thread being referred to has long since gone stagnant with inactivity.
Yeah, I have no issue with that. Sometimes there are similarities in threads but that doesn't make them dupes. And sometimes a newer thread is getting more attention, so there seems little point closing it.
However, this is generally at the mods discretion and whilst some of us might let it run, others will close it. We all have the same rules and guidelines and we all communicate with each other, but there will be ultimately differences in our moderating style.
Now what exactly was the point of your post? Seeing as the previous comment on here was posted SIX months ago, I'm guessing people have "gotten over it".
Might also be good idea to finally lock this thread. It no longer serves any relevant purpose.
I have a spare one you can use
"Ooh, shiny" ;-)
