The giant .23.5 thread

Why are you dumping 10s of unique topics into one giant thread?

You do realize that everything in the game is now .23.5 related.

These actions are effectively eliminating communication within the community, completely undermining the purpose of the forum.

It's become common practice to combine everything related to a new release into one giant thread as a way to minimise the mess a release always creates in the General Discussion section. Most, if not all, of the threads are not generally unique -- threads that are created to be unique or discuss a very particular facet of the release are often permitted to remain their own threads. General stuff about the release doesn't really need to be in an individual thread, and if we allowed everything to remain separate threads, you'd have a hard time finding a single post in that section due to the sheer volume of threads.

This is not what I'm seeing. I saw a thread on the launch abort system, one on the new srb, one on asteroid pics, one on the ion engine, I had one on the new possibilities in engine clustering. All gone. And that is just naming a few.

Many of those weren't merged into the megathred, but rather were moved to sections of the forums where they were more appropriate. In particular, the Launch Abort System thread is still its own thing, it just got moved to Gameplay Questions because it was, well, a gameplay question. Many of the others are similar cases.

This thread is quite old. Please consider starting a new thread rather than reviving this one.
