Double topics

I just wanted to metion there are some topics about the same subject. There are 2 topics in off-topic about Novell & SuSE and 2 about OpenOffice.org and Koffice in Office & PIM. This can be very somewhat confusing and imho it's better if discussion about a certain subject takes place in 1 topic instead of 2. Is it a good idea to close 1 clone-topic?

Yea, I know. At least a third of the topics in the Internet forum is about Kopete. The mods can't just delete topics because there might be relevent informaiton in one thread that isn't in another, and vice versa. I wish there was a feature to merge threads. That would solve the Kopete problem. For now, we cna only hope that the forums memders will try to stick with old threads instead of creating new ones for every bug and problem they come across.

Perhaps add a sticky "Kopete Problems" entry?

Have a nice day!

problems

A mod cannot read the whole kopete topics and decide if this is right and not ... the user should look around before posting!

No of course a mod should not delete a topic. But he/she can close redunant topic(s), so no more replies can be made in that topic. So all questions about for example Kopete can be asked in the topic that remains open. And if someone opens a new thread about Kopete a mod can close that topic too and provide a link to the kopete topic.

Ok, thanks for the suggestion. I'll try that.
