Every forum on the internet ever has had repeat topics. They are an inevitability among discussion boards. That people are still here, even making repeat topics, shows that they still want to be here; which is something I'm perfectly fine with, given Bungie's current state of darkness.
You aren't entitled to "good" topics by what ever metrics you want to set. You are entitled to your opinion and I respect that but I'm willing to guess that a large portion of the users who feel the need to belittle others do it for the former reasons you listed, rather than the latter. It's just under the guise of trying to make this board better.
I'm not trying to call you out specifically because I don't know why you say it, nor do I care. I am, however, calling it like I see it.
Essentially this times a thousand; it just sucks that it took a mod to say it.

You're right. When you need to compare the behavior of "everyone" (in reality a very select few members) to the behavior of SS soldiers in Dachau you're obviously emotionally uninvested in the topic.
Reductio ad Hitlerum in the first post of a topic? I think even Godwin would be surprised.
You did not read what I said, apparently; I referenced the strictness of Dachau, don't tell me we're illiterate now, too. And no, I can't say that I'm very "emotionally invested in the topic." Guilty.

Not necessarily. It's because we, and read this part carefully now, don't want to keep seeing the same crap pop up again in the future.
But nobody cares what you want, so commenting snobbishly on how bad you think a thread is is irreverent and annoying. You find "bad" threads annoying, and I find having to listen to "hurr durr moar quality needed" annoying.
