I have post a few thread on Ipad and some mod keep merging my thread to one "apple ipad discussion thread" Last night i post a topic on Ipad cannot use TM hostpot to access internet and this morning i realise it has been merge with "apple ipad discussion thread". So I have to browse thru many pages before I see my post and look for any reply or help. This is absolutlely stupid!!!

Why lump everything together in a huge thread where its impossible to search for specific info?


Admin edit: I have specifically allowed this thread. Please do not close [RBR]

That's the way it works here. If you're used to how it works in your previous Console Couch thread, don't expect the same mentality here. Here  unnecessary threads  are consolidated into one, and in your case, it is more of a single post  importance than warranting a new thread.

Thread reported.

It this how things work and we should not work top improve it, but simply accept it?

If this is how things work here, then all I can say is that lyn ipad forum really sucks...its so backward!!

Even my wardrobe is separated with drawers and compartments where I put my socks, underwear, t-shirts etc separately where i can get them instantly.

Try searching for a ipad topic and all you get is "apple Ipad discussion thread V1, V2, V2 and in between there are a couple hundred of pages. What year is this anyway?

How convenient to say that. Why even have a ipad discussion thread? Its not going anyway.

Dude, it's how it's done here. You don't see me messing about how Console Couch is moderated, or how Kopitiam are handled, even if it annoys me to no end.

Dude. If things can be improved, why not? Instead of showing your "tailou" attitude here "it's how it's done here". It so sad too see we malaysian ipad owner have to live with such a "closed" minded mod in the best tech website for malaysian.

You're new aren't you? You're not here when things were left open at one time and it evolves into arguments, flaming and such before when moderation was simple and relaxed. You relaxed the "whoever can post whatever thread" stance, you get the first page full of threads that are duplicates and people who wants to find info, have to search to multiple threads. Imagine you post your TM question thread, and another 10 more post the same question on 10 separate threads, which thread should anyone who have the same problem should refer to when he want to fix his problem? Search through 10 threads of similar content and hoping you find the right answer in one of those 10 threads? Or is it better to have it in one thread, and point the person who ask these questions to that one thread using the "Search" function.

I dont give a flying rat's ass whether you think I'm showing my "tailou" attitude here or not, from the Console Couch section you came, you shown your "attitude" there as well, and it ain't pretty. What, you grow tired of that section and want to change how things are done here?

Yes, I'm new in this sub section. I'm not saying that there should not be any control. But lumping everything into one thread? The last time I post my opinion(review) on the ipad, it got merged to the general discussion thread. Then I discover that it is impossible to login to Tm Hotspot and post a thread here and it too got merge into the general discussion thread. If there is a Tm hotspot thread coming up in future, and you merge it into a thread for ipad Tm hotspot discussion, then its okay. But merging every topic on ipad to 1 discussion thread is absolutely crazy.

When I first came to this sub-forum, i find it funny that almost all the thread are closed. I thought there are just very few ipad owners in malaysia. Now i understand why. I hope things will change here or I will never post here again.

you don't catch the point. if you wanted a detailed forum where you have one thread for every piece of shit you figured out from your ipad, you'll go to forum.ipad.com

Do you thing that anyone there can help you with Tm Hotspot problem there? That is why we need a local ipad forum to solve our local ipad problem.

One more thing. If i run a website of a forum, i want people to post more here and not go anywhere else. It is funny that it is the opposite here.
