This will cause me some flak but this has gone on for so long on Gransnet. Only on one topic Brexit, other occasions GNHQ will say this is a Thread about a Thread and deal with it.
As of this moment there are 7 Brexit threads running on ACTIVE in one hour between 19.12 and 20.12 .
Are they not Threads about a Thread?
The only reason I can see for so many threads on the same subject, the same posts being regurgitated on so many threads by some posters is there is an agenda to keep putting over their opinion on as many threads as they can by initiating new OP titles. As a Brexit metaphor it could be said to be ' Having your cake and eating it'. Instead of the 'debate' flowing they simply move on to make their point over and over again.
What it actually does is exactly what Gransnet says will happen :-
' Similarly, we will delete threads about other ongoing threads, as it causes too much confusion on the forums. '
Occasionally a new Brexit Thread has a reason and that's good but why so many of the same ilk are perpetually on the site eludes me.
Yes I can ignore them but I would prefer a sensible debate that does not get cut off only to be started under another guise.
Shall we reboot our cartoons thread again? 😁
