Multiple threads on the same topic will be deleted
When multiple threads cover the same topic we will typically leave one of them open, lock one with an explanation, and delete the rest. This is done to allow other topics to still have a place on the forums. Which thread is left open typically depends on the thread length and how constructive the first post and the thread in general are.
Creating Duplicate Threads
This category includes:
- Creating threads about existing topics
- Creating a separate thread about an existing topic for further discussion in more than one forum
If a player is found to have participated in such actions, he/she will:
- Be given a temporary ban from the forums, depending upon severity
Since you asked. It’s sort of basic internet forum etiquette.
