Getting slightly annoyed with all those merged topics
Anytime 2 or more topics are even slightly related to each other in one way or another they get merged together. Please stop this!. It really makes things confusing. Like for instance I read this post by one person then right after that there was another post by the same person that seemed completely out of context I could only assume it was from another topic that had been merged. It disrupts the natural flow of threads that allows you to clearly see exactly who is replying to what. Now everything seems thrown together in a very disorganized mess and I don't even know what's what anymore.

Raoul, there would be no need to merge topics if people looked at the list of open threads on a forum before posting a topic. For instance, how many threads on the Senna Bio-pic do we need?

I'm inclined to agree with Raoul Duke on this one. Last night, I replied to both Ralf threads, and my second reply was a direct response to the previous post. I now have two replies in a row in the new merged thread, and my second reply appears to be out of context where it is now, located after my first reply, no longer refering to the post it originally did. (People who didn't know better would think I was replying to my own post, not having any idea what I was talking about, which I don't .) All joking aside, it can be more than a little confusing, especially for someone who hasn't followed both threads and starts reading the merged thread from scratch.
