Quite often there's thread duplication from news stories or simply a new thread would be better as a part of a current one. Currently what happens is that the duplicate gets locked with a pointer to the original so it drops of the page and sometimes (admittedly not alwayswink) relevent info or comments don't get seen.

Would it be possible to stitch the threads together? So the duplicate thread's comments slot into the original?

Finally (after about 5 years smile) I've resolved this so that duplicates shouldn't get created at all.

I'll upload the fix tomorrow.
