    Why do we need to start new threads all the time lads. There is already a champions league thread, there is a match thread and there is even a van der vaart thread. It makes the exsisting threads better if we just post in the relevent thread. I am sure the guys who moderate here would be happy if we just posted in the relevant thread.

    And please dont be smart by pointing out that I've started a thread about starting threads lol.:rolleyes:

    Bang On, far too many. Keep it all in the one from now on. Reckless mentioned it earlier.

    And from this point forth, this thread must be used (or re-used) for pointing out when too many threads have been started

    This is a serious point.

    The best way for discussion to take place is if everybody participates in the same thread, that way you get more people reading your posts as opposed to everybody starting their own thread that nobody reads.

    I'm not a fan of multiple threads on similar topics, I've seen it on other forums and it looks and feels horrible.

    Is there really need for two Van der Vaart threads?

    On the other forums Mods will merge threads as necessary..

    And this is always done accordingly if you took the time to look back over time.

    therecklessone was simply making a point as the Senior Mod.

    they are volenteering their time to make this as easy and user friendly as possible and if we all pull together it makes their job easier for us all to read one thread instead of 3.
