Some explanations:

1. Threads are locked at 500 posts. The person who made the thread already had the template created for the new thread, and since the old one was getting really messy, with news and chat everywhere, he thought it would be a good idea to make the new thread already with all the information laid out.

Besides...if you like, we could just move 70 posts from the new thread to the old one, and the new thread would be more legitimate.

2. It's not really a "speculative" thread. Members can't change titles after the thread is posted, you have to PM a moderator to do it. I'm sure he just thought he would save them some time later on, and make the official title, and then put a BIG BOLD warning on the first line of the first post explaining the title.


To answer your specific questions:

1. No, the reason truehappiness made an all-inclusive thread, was to keep the news section more organized to stop people from making separate threads for every new piece of news. Of course, anyone can make this thread, but some members are a little more trustworthy to actually follow the thread, and update their first posts.

2. No. This thread is about an upcoming single that already has information and previews leaked. It's not speculative, it's a place where we can keep all the information in one spot.

When the covers are leaked, they will go into that thread, or one of it's continuations. Just like any other piece of information.

This keeps the News section cleaner, with less clutter, and makes information really easy to access.


All "specualtion" threads, such as, discussing her next possible album, should go into the Ayu Chat section.
