    Re-suggestions are a constant problem in the Skyblock suggestions section. I propose a new rule is added to this section that essentially entails the following:

    If a suggestion is made that is exactly the same as another suggestion, that suggestion is archived and the thread creator is encouraged to bump the pre-existing thread.

    If a suggestion is made that is very similar to another suggestion, that suggestion is archived and the thread creator is encouraged to post their take on the suggestion on the pre-existing thread, and bump it.​

    If a suggestion is made that is similar, but with a different viewpoint to another suggestion, that suggestion remains, as it is suggesting a different thing to the other thread.
    This would be added as a pinned thread to the suggestions forum and would apply to both server suggestions and forum suggestions.
    It's insanely annoying to read a suggestion and think to yourself "...wait, didn't I just read this idea the other day?". I think that the suggestions section will be more likely to be paid attention to if there are fewer threads with a clearer consensus (higher amount of comments and support/no support ratings).

    Thank you for reading, and I hope you agree with me when I say that re-suggesting an idea is very annoying.

    This should have been there from the start. It creates less spam, and makes everything a lot more simple.

    Honestly, I am so annoyed with all of the exact same suggestions. With this idea, it could make everything much simpler to navigate. Support!

    Support, someone made a copy of one of my threads and the moderators did nothing, but the second I made a suggestion that was already suggested they just locked or deleted it.

    Support, this would also help prevent post farming.

    Support. Would be quite helpful not having multiple threads of the same thing.

    Thank you to the people who've supported so far, but I sure ain't gonna let this suggestion die. I really want this implemented, re-suggesting things is annoying for everyone involved.

    Support, this would be great for not only organising the forums suggestion section, but also keeping the support central to one thread rather than many.

    I know I've bumped this a lot, but I am honestly more desperate for this to become a thing with each passing day.

    It's been a month, and I'm giving this another little nudge. I'm still desperately wanting this to be a thing: with this addition, the suggestions section might even become navigable.

    This seems so confusing, but I kinda get what you mean. Its annoying for people to create the same thread on the same suggestion
