In the FFXII Forum, someone made 2 topics about the same thing...which is, of course, a bad thing. o_o

In Topic 1: Del Murder made a Link to Topic 2, and someone then closed Topic 1. But Topic 2 was closed, and the only reply there was by Del Murder, and his post was just a Link to Topic 1 which was closed...

This may just be my foolishness, but I don't exactly understand why BOTH Topics had to be closed, and why the only replies in them were Links to one another...can someone explain this to me please?

(Note: I am not asking for a Topic to be Opened again, but just wondering why this happened. Not meant to be harmful. ^_^)
