Lol im not the one being ignorant here. As many have stated the mod was in the wrong in this very thread. You seem to think that yourself the minority on this matter are the only one who could possibly be correct. Yet tons of evidence and proof that the topic didn't need to be merged and was already in its proper place. Just goes to show how little you know about what your talking about.
And actually the only reason i had a problem and then went on to prove to the moderator how and why they were wrong was because they were trying to enforce and complain at people as to why it should be merged like it was some kinda rule or guideline of the forums. When it is in fact not. So the only one in the wrong was the forum moderator.
So once again. Do not meddle in subjects far above your intellect apparently. For you simply just look foolish.
Oof, foolish. That's a neat insult. Ever thought to comment on the people that didn't care? You know, the overwhelming majority? That reallllly realllllly don't give a damn. Forgetting something like that is actually paramount to what you're trying to prove. A few people, you, and 2 - 3 others, have displayed dissatisfactory in this thread. (as far as the recent pages go, anyways.)
I wouldn't really account that as tons of evidence as opposed to 2 people that stood up and the countless others that just want information, which they did get at the end of the day, even if it was lacking. Basically, you displayed your dissatisfactory to the forum moderator, who
1. Had no info to give, they're a forum moderator. Even if they did, it's not their position.
2. Was merging topics to their proper place, if you don't like it, too bad.
3. Is supposed to keep the forums tidy for easy access. General Discussion has a lot of threads that are questions and, like I said before, have been already answered. Merging a server issue thread to another thread in help & bugs doesn't really harm anyone, as if they are looking for help or bugs, they should go there.
If you really don't like these forums and their mods, you should've seen some of the other forums on some games, wew. Perhaps FFXIV forums have you spoiled, since they're pretty much handled with just deleting comments, giving suspensions and deleting hate threads.
So you can try and look like a hotshot, but it doesn't really mean much when the majority of people don't care because it's not an issue. As it stands, bugs do deserve to be in this section, which is something you forget. People will post threads in general discussion, and they will be merged here, and be notified by the thread regardless, thus being brought back for info if they need it.
But yes, I have an opinion I believe to be right, and yours wrong. Doesn't take a genius to figure that one out, I assure you.
EDIT: That'll be the last of that, I don't feel like replying to people who can't understand.
