Swanky, I almost completely agree with you. My own personal preference is to not end up with big giant threads that actually could be split up into a handful of more specific topics. Just as it's a pain in the keister to end up with redundant posts where the same things get discussed over and over because no one bothered to do a search, I also find it bothersome to have to dig through a many-page thread looking for a sub-topic conversation within it. It's all about a balance of organization.

Personally, I think tiki mick's question was different enough to merit its own thread. In this particular case, of course, your suggestion would have worked well -- it would have been clearer that tiki mick was asking for something different. But is that how we should be organized? Highjack another thread and say "I want something that is NOT what this thread is about?"
