The spree of reduntant threads

[fenrif]

I don't expect everyone to use the search function before opening a thread. What I suggest is that either mods be more vigilant for this. Or if vbulletin is capable it should automatically do a search on the proposed thread title and suggest to the poster that similar topics already exist.

People should be highly encouraged to search before opening threads. Even if it's just a cursary look.

The problem there is that people don't use the search before making a suggestion. We could do with a sticky though with things not to suggest any more. It won't stop people making those suggestions because post count, but it would give mods a reason to just insta-delete those threads.
