Some forums dont want you starting a new thread on old topics covered in another thread... So you get 50 page threads filled with people chatting mostly off topic. There is diamond info in the rough... But if you can't find it sifting through 50 pages of mostly crap... You get blasted for starting a new thread.
Fwiw pelican is an excellent forum. More polite, and far better informed than many. The 2002faq is great also, but smaller. Mazdaspeed forum... Full of knuckle heads. Painful place to go.

Very well said - you can't please everyone.
One of my biggest beefs are those huge merged threads where you can't find anything.
