    I don't think it's a bad idea, though I'd probably wait until activity died down a bit before merging.

    He's not regaling us with his pearls of wisdom though.

    I agree. I'm not sure after all these years of having individual threads, why they need to be merged into one. I think Tiresias said something about the listings? not fitting on whichever device he uses to log in here. (Could be wrong because I didn't understand what he meant in his request anyway).

    If it helps someone, having the threads merged, that's good but I found it better having them separate because very often there's something either to add to an old match or to go back and read.

    I think makes sense merging.

    As you say maybe best to hold off merging it until next game starts though - we all use and talk about the game for 3/4 days until new one is around the corner so once it’s died down, can then merge them.

    Why did it take 15 years (the age of this forum) for it to make sense? I liked it better not merged, it makes more sense being able to pinpoint a thread. One person has a problem :bandit:

    Like I said I don't think it's a bad idea after the match has gone cold, but in this case it was only a day old and you'd expect a fair bit of activity at least until we start talking about the next game (which in this case is only a couple of days off, I know).
    I'm not too bothered, I'll get used to it - but it seems more of an archive thing, not something to do with an active thread.

    I suggested it as the was just a load of old match threads taking up slots of the listings,nothing to do with my device.I thought that after a couple of weeks they don't need the individual listing still.
    It was just an idea I suggested, actually thought maybe a poll on it might have been done.<confused>

    It was acted on the minute you said it so it sort of bypassed a poll. I'm not really that bothered or I would have said something straight away. I just expressed my thoughts when someone else asked about it. <ok>

    TBF, I do look at how long it's been since anyone commented before moving them. No had posted anything for a while (talking hours rather than days here).

    In future, I'll wait until the next match thread is up (as in two matches after that one)

    I thought it was a decent shot so just acted. Didn't realise anyone went back to old match threads
