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.
They did the same thing with Delta Echo Razors.
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.
