Does it bother you if threads go off topic?

Or if people make off topic posts in threads?

Are those posts of mine you refer to, with those ideas still on CS? If so, why do you have a problem with them, they don't contravene any posting rule if the are still there.

 

We have moderators that decide which posts are removed or edited, not other posters.:smileyhappy:


well, not really, it just means a poster or lurker did not report your post.

Exactly. That's one reason I found it interesting to see some people didn't know about the "rule".

it was moved because you posted an off topic (for CS) post 


it still has nothing to do with the fact my request in my op was ignored.

 

where i posted it is irrelevant


I disagree.

 

What you posted and your request for responses to remain "on topic" and subsequently where it was moved to is extremely relevant.

Well, it can also mean the post (speaking generally, anyones posts) didn't contravene any rules and didn't need to be reported.Smiley Happy

 

Posts can also be removed by moderators choice.. as in chunks of them in one thread... posters don't always get advised of this..nothing to do with lurkers or posters reporting them all.

Yes you might be right, except too often I've seen complaining about other people's posts (which, btw, is off topic in itself) followed by gloating after posts were removed. That's enough clue for me.
