How many of you are fans of the "merged" thread?

This just reminded me of the annoying habit that djtidebuck had on BN, where he would edit one of his posts, and that would bump the thread without a new post being made.

He would frequently edit a post that wasn't at the end of the thread, in order to not make it obvious what he was doing. After a while it bugged the Hell out of me.

I'm not a real big fan of the merged threads (and, for the record, I don't believe that any thread I've started has become the victim of a hostile takeover by a pre-existing similar thread). I don't prefer them mainly because a thread is only appealing to me if it is 3-5 pages or less(unless it's one of those threads where reading it all doesn't matter...ie-Al Gore invented, This or that, etc...). I hate the way the football sections have went to lumping everything pertaining to a given player under his own thread (mainly for the same reasons). I was never one to reach for the "thick" books when it came time for a book report. But....to each, his/her own.

So would it help you if, instead of merging threads about one topic into one big thread, we merged posts about one big topic into one post?
