Pekka, I know there is a plugin for vBulletin that will list similar threads once a new title has been entered when a user creates a new thread. Maybe this will help reduce duplicate threads somewhat.

Has this option been looked into already? I dont know what type of resources it'd eat up on the server but I thought it was a neat feature.

Are you looking for the "Similar Threads" list at the bottom of this page?

Third party plugins will not be used for security and support reasons. Besides any plugin would be rendered invalid when vBulletin is going to be replaced with something better.

Thomas, yes it is similar to that. However, when creating a new thread obviously there are no threads listed at the bottom that are similar to what you're about to start a new thread about. Make sense?

Hopefully SMF is on the way!

If SMF is another forum software then I can say no.

Okay well it was worth a shot. Any ETA for the new forum software?

Jeff, notifying of "similar threads" after typing a title for a new thread will be there in new forum software. It's all going to be 100% original code, so no vB or SMF will be installed here.
