If the moderators actually closed them as they appeared or were reported then they wouldn't build up. It should be simple. I report a redundant thread, the mod checks it and deletes it. No warnings fire the OP, just thread deletion. Simple...

Al i can imagine is more offtopic posts in ROM threads.... Enjoy XDA-ns

And that would be fine, but the build up is already there because of lack of action taken by the mods... not all, but some...

As announced here:

Hello.
The moderating team assigned to your forum has decided to no longer allow any offtopic threads whether those were previously sanctioned by moderators or not.
We have come to this decision due to the fact that those threads offer absolutely nothing to the device specific forum or to development in general. After all the name of the site is xda-developers.
If you feel the urge to engage in any offtopic discussion, the offtopic forum is always at your disposal.
As such, this thread will be closed in 24 hours from this post.
Please understand that this decision was made only to streamline the forums ridding them from any topic that doesn't pertain to the specific device.
Thank you for your understanding.
