I am working on an Environmental Technology web site which includes a forum called The Digester. In a sewage treatment plant, the sludge is sent there to ferment and deodorize before being sent to the landfill. |

I guess it became necessary, but the ecent wave of OT threads were probably because of the elections. Even I was overtaken, and I usually avoid the off topic threads completely! This is one of the first time, in all the years I was posting at SubTalk, that I got thrown in full throttle, just lke so many others.Thanks for all your efforts Larry, this hopefully will help next time the off topic threads take over the board as they did Tuesday and Wednesday. |

It's a nice idea, and we'll see how it goes, but I still think it will be lightly patronized. Current election related threads aside, I don't believe most of the off topic posts that come from off topic threads, that started as on topic threads, that strayed through the normal course of conversation can be "forced". It's sort of like a group of friends sitting at the bar saying, "We will now talk about "this" or "that". In situations like that (as with subchat), it just sort of happens.I still don't think that conversation is something that can be forced. Similarly, I don't think it's that easy to just pick up and continue talking about the off topic thing, that started in an on topic thread once the thread over at subchat is locked, and a link brought here. The one thread that was locked and linked over to here died soon after. But I hope I am wrong...we shall see. |

This side will be successful once Larry writes a script that will allow the whole thread to be moved over, leaving one locked message on the original board that will link here. |

Not for those who read in chronological format, since that one post would presumably appear where the thread first started.Besides, who says that the entire thread would need to be moved? Very often, only one subthread is off-topic. |
