> The problem with redirects as I see it is if you have just posted on it and want to stay involved. You have to go there and write anything or you will not receive notification of new posts. Maybe if there was a way to notify those who already posted without them having to repost until they have something to say.
I know that's an issue. But sometimes the whole thread isn't redirected, and I've been reluctant to assume that people who want to follow the original thread will want to follow the redirected one, too...
