Hey guys...I'm wondering, what's the difference between this thread:
http://forum.gateworld.net/showthread.php?t=22110
And the Anti thread? Because I'm pretty sure I'm seeing the same things in both threads.
If you agree with me, can you merge them?

Looks like a different expression, from the same point of view. I don't necessarily see the threads as identical.
This would be a thread, however, where it is perfectly acceptable for fans with different opinions to discuss (in a calm, respectful manner ). The topic as created is not specifically for negative S9 views.GateWorld Podcast - Info - iTunes - Google

Any chance of merging these two virtually identical threads (same subject, same thread starter, even mostly the same opening post)

http://forum.gateworld.net/showthread.php?p=4981144Equality is not a concept. It's not something we should be striving for. It's a necessity. Equality is like gravity. We need it to stand on this earth as men and women. And the misogyny that is in every culture is not a true part of the human condition. It is life out of balance, and that imbalance is sucking something out of the soul of every man and woman who is confronted with it.

I was just wondering why the Weir Wow Thread got renamed. There was a perfectly good reason why it was Weir Wow. The way it worked was that Weir Wow was for pictures of Weir and Torri/Weir Appreciation was for discussion about both Torri and Weir as well as photos of Torri (not Weir).
The new discussion thread confused things a bit, seeing as instead of being neutral territory for discussion, it seems to have been taken over by Torri fans and has replaced Appreciation. Very strange indeed.
Anyway, my point is that the older fans among us have a very clear idea of what belongs where, and renaming it is not only confusing, but almost makes Appreciation surplus to requirements, given the the new group have adopted discussion (Which IMHO is null and void).
Instead of messing about with thread names, why can't we stick with the formula that works?
Weir Wow: Photos of Weir
Weir/Torri App: Discussion and Appreciation of both Torri and Weir and photos of Torri in other roles.
Discussion: Neutral ground for discussion both positive and negative.Last edited by Tracy Jane; 27 February 2006, 10:48 AM.Yepp, it's blank down here.

Then we have a Weir/Torri *Appreciation* thread...this one if I am not mistaken has the distinction of being BOTH pictures AND serious discussion of Weir and Torri roles with *some* pictures but this thread has MORE Talk Less Fluff.
Then we have the Weir Discussion thread - this thread is for SERIOUS deiscussion of ONLY the Dr Weir Role. No pictures, no Torri, no major fluff.
So as far as I am concerned adding Torri's name only made the hundreds of already posted items regarding Torri in the WOW thread On-Topic. It hasn't changed anything with-in the thread in anyway, shape or form. Each thread still has its own flavor and brand of fluffy vs serious.
It is also the ONLY set of threads we have allowed this much latitude on just to be accomodating to all of the Weir/Torri fandomLast edited by TameFarrar; 27 February 2006, 11:34 AM.Life is short, Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly, Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably, And live out loud with no regrets..
