Sometimes threads with similar content need to be merged together to give the forum an appearance of tidiness. The moderators don't mean to offend, they are just trying to make things look nice for prospective members of RR. If you see a ton of threads with the thread locked or thread deleted icons, it makes things look trashy (go look at the warhammer forum dakkadakka and you'll see what I mean); but if you keep the threads to a minimum and they have a higher page count- it makes the forum seem more tight knit, with extensive conversations being held in a thread.
