Seriously, there are way too many of them (many of which are just duplicates of shipping threads in the exact same section).

I have two possible solutions.
  1. Create a whole new forum section for shipping threads
  2. Create a single shipping thread for every section (iPad section, iMac section, etc) and sticky it
I'm not sure how well either solution would go, but I hope there are other members that agree with me. o_O

If they make an entire forum for shipping, I recommend we also include threads for this kind of shipping:


”Shipping” Craig Federighi’s hair alone might warrant its own forum. :cool:
 
I second the call for a separate forum for this, and make it like PRSI, so people can hide it. Better yet, hide it by default. Better yet, don't create the threads.


Next thing there'll be threads for when your last bowel movement was.
 
The shipping threads are at an all time awfulness during the fall. Makes the iPhone forums so cluttered having a shipping thread for carriers, countries, phone models, etc. Some consolidation does need to be done.

You can click the ignore button at the top of the thread and you won't see those threads again.
 
That'd be great if new shipping threads weren't constantly popping up 24/7.

Even as it stands right now, there are so many shipping threads that it's impossible to ignore all of them.
It is a long time problem.

The effective solution once again is not the call for reporting, but making a separate place for those absolutely useless, annoying and irritating threads.
