Merge Redundant Threads

I frequent forums all the time, but I must admit, the Pentax Forums simply do not do enough to make sure threads and the posters posting within them are organized. Right now the infamous rumors section has two, even three duplicate threads on the same subject matter. I have a hard time finding my previous posts and seeing where the conversation has gone from there. Oh, I can go into my page history and see where I did what- but that's a red herring. There should be a definitive Lens Roadmap thread. There should be a definitive K-01 thread. There should be a definitive thread for the new DSLRs rumor.

My suggestion is to lock the less populated threads and seeing that people will be forced into one thread, increase the posts per page size from what, the 10 it is now, to something more reasonable to 20 or 25.

And in creating this thread, I have made a redundant suggestion, one that perhaps ought to be merged or closed and allow for an 'official' topic to thrive instead.

Do your part and report duplicates, and they will be closed as needed
