Too Many World Cup Threads
Come on Mods. You complain about others doing stuff like this. Let there be one and get it over with.

Yeah, and there are too many ME threads. And threads about Americans. And threads about Europeans. And threads about European/American relations. Come to think of it there are too many threads about people! We should just have one "people" thread. C'mon Mods!

They should go back and delete the other ones.
Seriously. there were three threads on how the host countries handled the games. There were numerous threads on this team was robbed. There were threads when a team won and a thread for the team that lost, from the same match. A bit much if you ask me. In case some of you didn't know there are entire forums for Soccer on other sites.

I was joking. Let people post what they want. It's OT after all.

But the mods have stated in the past that multiple threads on the same subject is against the rules. In order to be consistent, they should have nipped this in the bud when they saw it happening.

As I tried to illustrate with my "people" thread example, I think you're being a little narrow in what you consider "multiple threads on the same subejct."

There's only four days of the World Cup left, and then you start complaining?
Live with it, it's only something that happens once every four years...

It happens once every four years... get over it.
The same thing happens in US presidential years.
I saw no reason to have nipped it in the bud. As it was, I did delete some multiple threads, and closed a few others. But lighten up... for many people this is important. Let them have their fun...

I'm not really interested in the world cup, but its fairly easy for me to just not read the threads. The people in the threads enjoy it, so theres no real problem IMHO.
