Does it bother you if threads go off topic?

[donnashuggy]

Or if people make off topic posts in threads?

Well you brought it up Pepe so I thought I would go back and read it.  You said that you started a thread and asked that everybody stick to the topic. The thread about suggestions for improvements?

As far as I can see, no one went off topic, unless those posts have been removed.

whatever.

i simply relied to you that i wouldn't know if the posts were still there or not as i hadn't gone back to it.

no need to make a federal case out of it.

Yes, there were posts removed from the thread  moved to NCE (some of the first ones before it was relocated at least, because the OP made a point of asking respectfully for posters to stick to the thread topic, some made a point of  posting the exact opposite) , is that so important or hard to undesrtand?

That's why I asked Am because it all looks hunky dory to me.

I didn't bring the thread up so I don't think I am trying to make a case of anything.

poster posts opening post that is off topic for CS 

opening post likely to get all sorts of attention and reactions from various members 

opening poster requested members join them in posting off topic for CS posts

seems annoyed that some didn't comply with their requests 

off topic opening post left on CS until it was eventually moved to appropriate board

general discussion type posts removed as being off topic for that post while the off topic post was on cs

thread moved to correct board (opening poster doesn't receive mail as others may have for their off topic posts)

opening poster then not interested in the topic they wanted to discuss with others?

why is that so ?

and why is it the those who post 'off topic' the most not interested in that OT post ?

give it a rest iza. 

i did not request anyone break any rules as you seem to be hellbent on l that i did.

i used that thread as an example in a reply to a post a few pages ago.

I was interested in the topic I started but walked away when it was deliberately derailed as i have better things to do than play petty oneupmanship games with people I really don't care to converse with

I think someone suggested that only the opener poster be able to report posts for being off topic .

Not a good idea imo.
