I really cant believe the results on this...
Says a lot about some folks.

I second that. Are we proposing banning now for punishment for making multiple threads?
who suggested THAT?

I'm not voting because, you people can't honestly be that unintelligent to think that making one thread/sticking it will fix our problems. We need to enforce this i.e. lock threads and redirect which hasn't really been happening to this point. I agree one thread for each game with a sticky is good but not good enough. If y'all really want to be proactive I would suggest something along the lines of temporally promoting trusted/very active members the power to lock threads. That way this will be enforced and not a epic failure.
I will also go ahead and say I believe MW 2 should have 1 class thread and another discussion thread. Same for other large games I mean 1 or 2 official threads isn't that bad.
Just my opinion.

you can't single out games in this situation.
it's one or none.
i agree though, that enforcing this is going to be hard, but we're at that point. MW2 are getting locked because we have SO many of them. this is why i'm suggesting 1 thread per game. do you people REALLY think this would hurt us in any way? can you name another game that spawned SO many other threads? i've been here for 3 years, and i'm just now creating this thread.
The answer is no. That is why I can single out MW 2 and give it two dedicated threads. I mean I know we want to "clean up" however, if the discussion is talking about some new glitches and johnny N00b wants to talk classes, I mean half our threads on MW 2 have been on classes. I see what you're saying as far as one thread easy to link it and move on. That was my reasoning behind two threads, granted I see your side as well.

Just redirect them like we normally do, by that time the threads would now be only few rather than a bunch

Since opinions were asked, opinions shall be given.
I don't mind closing the occasional blatently duplicate thread but I sure as heck do NOT feel like moderating people because they made a duplicate. Its becoming absolutely ridiculous the demands of people around here trying to make everything "the way it was" or whatever.
I'm totally for having separate forums for each game, that way there is an easy way to look at all threads related to a game. Unless that happens I think you should all just get over it and freaking ignore the threads.

While im sick of the mw2 threads i don't think having one or two threads helps anything out.
What would happen if a new member, new to posting on forums was to make one? He/she gets ed at?

ed at? what?
i'll suppose that means "bitched at."
if that were to happen, we will direct them to the original topic.
nothing new. WE ALREADY DO THAT.
you guys DO understand what i'm suggesting, right?
we have LIMITED moderation. if you see someone make a thread about a game, tell him/her to search. if you feel like giving the link, PLEASE DO!
i really don't think i'm suggesting anything outrageous...

i don't know anything about "the way it was" mini.
it was NEVER this bad though, in my opinion.
everyone against this idea is shrugging off our 20 daily M2 threads.
i am all for separate game forums, but i'm trying to be realistic here.
XBA is getting big, but i don't think it's that big yet.
i just want to know who wants what. we have limited moderation, and i want to know how the active members feel about all the bullshit spamming the boards. i'm not alone here, obviously.
