But the fact remains that OT-threads were the norm, and Simpsons-related threads far between. It is a question of a balance, and I understand why the mods wanted to atleast test this. I am sure they also understood they might lose some people, but given enough time, I'm sure the situation will sort itself out. Some people will always leave from a big community, and new people will arrive. Such is the life of an internet forum...

From my perspective, OT threads were not the norm. They were simply more popular. Topical threads would have been popular and seen more often, if people would check to see if there were already threads that were similar enough. There are just so many duplicate threads, and they all fade out quickly. I think the time mods spend rooting out OT threads would be much better spent, merging on-topic threads, which would make them look a lot more prominent, and you would see them on the first page a lot more often.

Twiz is right about the 2x SVT pages. There is literally no new information there. Every one of them should just be merged, because that is the kind of stuff that just bogs the forum down.

I disagree with you about OT-threads not being the norm, but that is up in the air. But I do agree with you that the mods could, if they have the time, be more efficient in merging duplicate topics.

In regards to this I believe much would be better if we could have more topics on every page. Show more topics on each side, merge duplicate topics more often, and perhaps the existing OT-threads wouldn't seem as prominent...

I don't want to argue, but I would like to point out that they were more popular not more prominent. :thumbup:
