while merging threads is one good idea in a lot of cases what actually needs to be done is threads deleted and members given warnings, as a lot of the duplicates tend to be made by people who haven't even looked, as if they had looked they would notice there where already three threads on the same subject on the very first page!
When you run a forum and someone posts something you don't like, the answer is ban them? Admin and Moderators are there to help people not to put the fear of god in to them so no one posts, that would be defeating the whole object of a forum for discussion.
The reason i say merge is most have gone out of there way to post caps of the girls and not seen theres a thread already exists, which happens on all forums, so all that is done on mine is merged and that member gets a polite PM telling him his post was moved and please remember there is a search function.
Btw the chat in a video thread gets moved to the discussion thread and same again to that member through PM, if that member does it repeatedly he gets his first warning, if it still continues he as a holiday of up to 14 days from the forum :)
Quoting of full video and caps gets a verbal warning and post deleted, all Moderators have there own forum rules of conduct so helps for consistent Moderation.
Btw there are new people coming online and joining forums for the first time ever everyday and they make a mistake on there first post and get shouted at, no they just need help on how to.
Basically you give people a chance before you hang them.

But thats why i say clean up, if merging is done as soon as its seen by Admin or Moderators and that member gets a PM about it then they know for next time, but if they never come back then no harm done as the problem was sorted straight away.

Again thats what Moderation is for, the PM system is a great tool for mods so members don't end up looking like a tool on the forum :D also topics have a mind of there own as this is a rant thread and all are rants but of different things, so all valid.

also i think more emphasis should be on the posters rather than the mods/admin as on this site unlike many others people can actually "earn" something for their posts so i think because of that maybe the rules should be a little stricter than on other forums akin to how you would be more strict over something done at work than you would in your private life

As an admin i am here to help out where i can and punish those who do wrong
The thread i hate of this the ones that just say this babe is hot or sexy as they dont really have a future.
Duplicate thread are annoying but they are common to nearly every forum . the cap section will always have duplicate threads as people are posting their own caps to show off
