Angry Who else is annoyed by...

...multiple threads on this forum that are titled "<insert movie name here> blu-ray !" and when you click on them are only "wish this is released on blu-ray". When there is no actual announcement or confirmation of a blu-ray release, the title is simply misleading. There is not even any discussion of the film itself, only an empirical mention of its box office receipts, which means BS, unless you're getting any of that money.
I request the posters of such threads, do not label your thread as "blu-ray" threads unless you have some confirmation on this aspect. Alternatively, just make a blu-ray wishlist thread where you can lump all your wishes together.

What I find more annoying is four or five threads for a single movie - one for talking about it when it's in theatres, one for asking about the release date of the BD, another stating the official announcement, another for discussing the BD, and finally one more for posting screenshots. God forbid some place has a sale on the title..

At least they are fine..

In my opinion, the threads about the home theater and projectors have no place here. This site has separate section for that. I often looked Home theater section for suggestions/information when I was setting up my home theater. It would be useful to others who seek information on Home theater setup if moved to correct section.

Also there was a thread for discussing music... I followed the thread for sometime. Very Good information really. But again there is a section for music in this site...

My humble opinion...

What I find annoying is... there are lot of threads to read on this forum and time is pretty less. For me, it seems to be the only forum where I can see around 100 unread threads all the time, and I hardly get time to read 10 of them !!

Whenever I see new thread regarding some movie I would feel happy thinking that finally there is some blu-ray information regarding this movie. But when I read it its just "hope this gets released" or "he / she acted well etc"...
People seriously there are many more forums for discussion about movies. Lets make this forum just for discussing about blu-ray's

I agree with you, but you must acknowledge that those threads are neat and clean, we don't open a new thread every-time we post about a new album or new technology.

Yes it is well organized, but not everyone will know how passionate you are with music if this is in wrong place.. I should not have mentioned about this thread here. Because I did not feel like this thread is annoying, but I thought it is in wrong place.. Sorry about that...

I was annoyed seeing a new thread which is not about the movies yesterday night..

@rcrajan:
I see your point, but the issue here is not of whether a thread is relevant to Indian blu-rays or not. Given the rate of Indian releases we have, and given that many of the members of this forum import their non-Indian movie/TV blu-rays from abroad, there is precious little to discuss if we only stick to the topic of Indian blu-ray releases. In fact I'm surprised that these boards continue to have a special hub for Indian blu-rays when Hong Kong, which probably has more BD releases than us, is sharing with China and Japan and others in a common "Asia" forum.
The issue is more of misleading the members, inadvertently or otherwise, by naming a thread as a "blu-ray" thread when there is no actual information of a blu-ray release, and spawning multiple threads of that same type. And the topics you have mentioned at least have some good meaningful discussion in them, something totally absent in these threads.

Well , i dont see any problem with multiple threads for screenshots , discussion about blu-ray and all , rather i just dont care! so my vote is NO! There are many more things in life to get annoyed at rather than getting pissed off with a tiny thing like this.

What I find more annoying is people discussing non indian movies, music, comparison of heroes. While multiple threads are annoying I dont find a problem with a thread for a movie especially popular ones. Some regular posters seem to think they can discuss whatever comes to their mind on this forum

I concur that we need more moderation

I think this is ok too as the old threads disappear in time.
