The moderators on this site are too quick to merge.

The other thread merged was started with a rumor link that was already posted in another thread. We've already got 3 or 4 threads going on this. I'm sorry you were offended.

Can you please merge all complaint/slash good bye threads ..........

No, I just stopped coming around.  You're one of those with whom I enjoyed sparring, when I could find your posts that is.

Thanks I enjoyed some back and forth with you as well, maybe you will find your way back again.

No. My #1 beef is not about MY post. 

It's about the constant merging of OTHER posts together so that conversations get buried and screwed up.

Even if I can reply to a congent thread ... a few hours later it's merged with four others and gets to 20 pages long.

From my research, you started a new thread to post, “Very thankful we are looking forward and not backward.” I’m absolutely ******* baffled that this is happening. You’re angry enough that that ******* post wasn’t allowed to keep its own titled thread that you posted multiple other times about it?

First... I don't care that my thread was merged. I posted it KNOWING FULL WELL that would happen since the other Jeff Scott thread was merged -- which I discovered when I tried to post a cogent reply.

That said I know I am not an active member on this board any more ... it's because of the over zealous moderation and merging lots of threads into these mega-threads that basically stifle discussion.

I don't know why this happens...  and I am sure this thread will soon be moved or deleted.

It's sad because this used to be a great site.... and there are a lot of people here who post enjoyable topics and replies.  But then they get buried under 10 or 20 or 50 other pages of other threads that are kinda-sorta related.

Go ahead... merge, move, or delete this.  I'll go spend my time elsewhere.

As someone with an irreverent attitude and prone to take such positions, I have found this board to be the most open to free speech. Good luck finding another.

This was just the latest example... I've come here from time to time this season lurking and reading... or trying to... you should try reading 20+ page threads from the start and it becomes quite clear the conversations are mixed.  Quite impossible to follow.

There really hasn't been that much merging going on regularly.  A lot of threads get disjointed completely on their own.

I haven't had problems with the other Bulls boards.

I’ve said some pretty absurd things and have still managed to survive 18+ years

It sure doesn't seem that way. But I appreciate that you have heard my concerns.  Thank you.

I wasn't sure where else to post this... so now that you;ve heard, you can delete the thread if you wish.

Back to lurking.
