I think what you're saying is something like "Rumor: Williams to Jacksonville" and then somehwere in that thread someone posts link and says "It's official guys" and then meanwhile, another thread is created that says "NFL Network: Gregg Williams Signs with Jacksonville"

Is that the type of scenario you're talking about?

Ok I got it, in that case I wouldn't call it a duplicate. I mean it is, but that's not the problem I'm trying to address here.

Matty, maybe you should take just a moment to give a few examples of just what is considered a "worthless thread" It has become apearent that the people who post these type threads don't know the difference.

I think one previous poster gave some examples of the type threads you're refering too, but they would be better served hearing it from you.
