I am a "Service Expert" on the Comcast Forum and as such I have the ability to move posts, merge posts, remove posts etc. I do not have the ability to edit anyone's posts - other than my own. Be that as it may, I have found on the Comcast Forums that the ability to "move posts to their own threads" even on the same board, and more or less create a new topic is advantageous.
IMHO, I despise "Me Too" posts - those which state "I also have the same problem" which I have found in most cases is in fact not the same exact problem with the same exact corrective action. I dislike folks tagging onto posts started by others - especially when the original posts have been marked as "Solved".
I have seen many posts on all the boards here that are marked Solved and that is all good and well - but then other posters add their situations to the post - which is already flagged as solved. To me that is where the Guru's can earn their "pay" more!
If you could give the Guru's the ability to manipulate the location of posts (rather than asking a Mod to move it to another Board) and also for the Guru's to be able to split the "Me Too" posts to their own thread, I think it would help in the long run.
I have found many times that a thread is marked as Solved - but there is another situation added to a "Me too" post and that is also solved a different way and that is the answer I am looking for - but I pass over it because I have keyed in on the other "Solved"
I hope that all makes sense and am curious what others think.
