If I am correct, this Litter Bin, would consist of several threads pertaining to a wide variety of subjects. Not very organized, in my opinion.
So you are suggesting that we have a forum that consists of threads that have been duplicated? Rather than simply close them, they should be closed and moved to the "Litter Bin".
Rather than browsing the "Litter Bin" looking through subjects from George Bush to the latest Chit Chat game, we could just browse the specific forum itself.
Well your looking to have these Duplicate threads moved to a Litter Bin that is accessible by members

My question is, why we would have the ''litter bin'' browsed, since why we would have the dublicated threads to watch? Why would i have to read a double thread?

So no information is lost from the respective forums.
I understand you.

But that does kind of rob the author of the trashed thread of any credits for their presentation.
So I think it's a good idea, if I am understanding this correctly.

After all, who should get the real credit...we are not the "creators" of anything really. More like good "copiers", as we are not the source of the info.
Originally posted by TrueAmerican The membership are creators of a good bit of the content on ATS, and it is what sets the site apart from other sites. And it is why it is encouraged to not just post an article, but to comment on it. And those comments are original content from the membership. But that's not all. There is totally unique content as well on ATS. Take a look at the collaborative writing forum, the conspiracy masters forums, or heck, just click on one of the podcast tunes in my sig or on the podcasts page. All unique, original content.
