    I know what you mean,

    All free kindle books are now going on one thread which is what people have voted for and complained that separate posts clutter up the board.

    I am not saying I agree, it's just complying to the majority.

    So what happens when people post their finds on their own thread ?
    Will they get moved or removed ?

    ETA most of the ones I use are posted late at night, I will carry on using them as nothing will happen to them until the morning anyway.

    They should get merged.

    I really don't understand how it would be better to have them in one place as there will be no expire button to press once it's ended which will cause people to click through to the website. Not a happy reader. :(

  • It makes sense to combine them. They'll take up less space and it'll give us a daily thing to check rather than lots of individual threads.

    But I can press the -got it- button when they have their own thread.
    And it doesn't take long to look through a days threads.

    Whilst I`m all for free ebooks, there`s already a big thread running that covers freebies.
    The thread lumped all the other threads together to keep them all in one place and simple.

    https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/3846071

    Having a second thread running means posting twice, and then with your suggestion, keep having to check if the free ebook has expired and coming back to delete the post.

    Not a very good system and complicated.
