Perhaps I'm wrong- don't know who's complaining or how this issue came about. It's not an issue of free speech or censorship, imo. I don't consider the issue to be if Sue threads are posted in TTI, sometimes it's appropriate to have them in both places.
There have been days though, where almost the whole first page is related to Sue/Pure/Izzy. One would think it was the S/P/I forum. Many of those threads could've been combined. Just as the examples I gave earlier in this thread. So someone wants to read about her daughter working for a program. They can't go to one thread and read all the relevant information, because it will be scattered out in multiple threads.
I used to link related threads. There's too much these days. I can't keep up.
Everyone could look before they post. If there's already a thread on a specific topic, add your post to it rather than start a new one.
For instance, if a year ago someone was arrested and charged for abuse, why not post updates in that same thread? It does make for easier reading and searching.
Programs/Topics get their own forum when they generate enough interest to warrant it. If more posts are made for that program in the TTI, what's the purpose of having its own forum? I don't expect people to come to TTI to find info on HLA. It's going to overlap, its the nature of the beast, but another option is to post the relevant info in the appropriate forum then link to it in other forums. The redundancy isn't necessary.
