You’d think so, but some people’s definition of “appreciation” manifests in ways that seem anything but.

A# to the main question, the short answer is it’s a mod’s discretion to merge threads in situations like you’re describing. If they feel a thread’s theme or discussion is more in line with what’s happening in an appreciation thread, or redundant (an appreciation thread by another name that covers the same topic) there it goes.

If it’s an actual concern that you disagree with and/or want to discuss contact the modertor(s) of that forum privately.
