Yesterday I was curious and looked up for some alternatives to this forum and I found this one..
It only takes a glance to see how different feels from this one. Over there there seem to be specific threads about bugs, complains, gameplay. It is very tidy and easier to read.
I appreciate the work of the moderators over here but maybe it would be better if they focus a bit on new threads that are redundant, because it looks very messy over here.
My personal opinion is that many of the redundant topic are about negative parts of the game. These post express genuine opinions but because there are so many it makes the forum look like a complaint board and I don’t think it makes a good service to the game.
I think this should be aimed more at the people making new topics without searching if that topic has already been made. The forum even gives you a heads up when creating a new topic that a topic with a similar name and/or discussion already exists. Unfortunately this just gets ignored.
The mods do fuse topics together quite regularly, if this doesn’t happen someone will often post a link to a similar topic, the one with the most votes usually.
But yeah, a lot of duplicate topics are on this forum. If you find them post a link of the largest out of them in the smaller ones. This way the discussion can be centralised!

I think in the flag menu there should be an option to say that the created thread is redundant.
You can always flag it for ‘something else’ and add a link to a similar thread.

I just tested this on Mondello Park, a track voting thread that had a duplicate. It got fused within 5 minutes!
