it struck me that although I understand the reasoning behind merging threads (same question asked 10 times does get old), having a thread that is 79 pages seems a bit much. Isn't there a way to reduce the threads so that the limit of pages may be indexed/reduced for better searching/getting better results?
Perhaps limiting threads to 20 pages max? There isn't a reasonable way to read the information and moreover, in this instance, the thread started over 3 years ago with information that isn't relevant to many of the questions being asked today. Thanks for considering this request.
I’ve brought up similar issues but to no avail. The over-merging of threads (which your complaint is a function of) in the UA forum is way overboard… and your example is but one example of the results of over-merging. I now read that forum less and less simply because of this.
But alas, my concerns fall on deaf ears, as I suspect yours might also.
