www.televisionwithoutpity.com is not just a "more strictly moderated site" it is THE more strictly moderated site. (JeffS' example is instantly recognizable as TWoP)

But it is a poor example for this case. That forum has a few standing topics, with new topics looked upon in a highly suspect way. These topics then go on for hundreds and thousands of posts, only replaced when they get too big for the software to parse effectively. They also have totally different software that works best with few, but very long threads.

A better example is www.tivocommunity.com which has more active moderation and does close duplicate threads, but creates threads at a rate much closer to the rate at which FlyerTalk creates them.
