They hate the Rockwell over at B&B -- any thread which mentions the 6S gets merged into one generic Rockwell thread. That thread is buried in 'Shave/Scent of the Day!>>Clubs and Brotherhoods>>Rockwell Razor Club".

They did the same thing with Delta Echo Razors.

Is that hate, or is that a group of moderators hell bent on organization? I ask. It does get confusing, and counter-productive, to have a dozen (or more) threads on the same subject, scattered across various sub-forums within a website, with new users asking questions that have been answered several times over. Personally, I wish more threads were merged together, but I also know that is an enormous amount of work for moderators. One Rockwell 6s thread, stickied.

The other day, I posted in a Rockwell 6s discussion, and then when I went back to see something, I couldn't find it. The 6s thread I did find didn't have my post in it, and I wondered if I had said something wrong and my post was deleted. Then I wondered if I was imagining actually posting in the thread...but I knew I did. It was weird. And then I checked my profile and realized it was another thread in another sub-forum. How many 6s threads are running right now??? And the content was overlapping. I got message board vertigo or something.

I'm not sure what is going on over there.  


If it is a matter of organization then you would see a consolidation of Fatboy, Slim and DE89 threads.   For every 6S thread there are 4 or 5 vintage Gillette or Merkur threads, yet those are not moved to some obscure sub-forum.

An Internet search for "Rockwell Razors chrome" turns up some interesting information.

Should I find it weird that the Kickstarter campaign for the 6c has yet to be mentioned here? It's clear they aren't going to change the threading to metric, so it really doesn't matter to me anyway.
