[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 6266126, member: 2525"] Well I was not the first to say that same thing in this very thread. Nor was I the second. I wasn't even the third to say it, [MENTION=1]Morrus[/MENTION]. No, I was the fourth - making half the thread responses at the time the same response - this is too many threads about this topic. HALF. It was [URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?324408-Do-We-Need-Another-quot-Damage-On-A-Miss-quot-Poll"]June 3, 2012[/URL] when we had a poll that there were too many polls about Damage on a Miss. We're not far off from the 2 year anniversary of people voting that we don't need any more of these polls TWO YEARS. And more polls every week since it seems. Every third thread about 5e these days is about damage on a miss, in some way. Every single person in this thread that has responded, has already voiced their opinion on the topic in another thread. And if you will look, I bet you the most number of three day bans come from those threads, and moderator warnings. If you can show me someone who is saying something new, or even someone who hasn't themselves said the same thing they're saying right now, then great. But this isn't different people discussing the topic...this is the same people discussing the same topic, with just a different thread title. Often because the last one got smacked down from Umbran. You tell me when enough is enough? When we get to 100 threads about the same topic? 500? 1000 threads? Tell me if there is any line you think is appropriate to draw, when we've done a topic too many times, and maybe it's time to combine the threads together into fewer threads. It used to be two. That used to be the rule - no duplicate threads, and they get combined if there is even 2. That's obviously gone the way of the dinosaurs, but I think it was fair of me to mention the issue when it got to be roughly 1/3 of the 5e threads, when half the responses were the same as my response - which is that we don't need another poll on this topic.
