Hey, Moni! Actually, there's nothing wrong with a topic running aground (like the gardening one), especially if it's been milked for all the information that it can give. The only thing is, on interesting "off topic" conversations, they may be buried under topics that no one would know they were there, which is why I like to post them under their own heading with the disclaimer *OFF TOPIC* so that people looking for real information can skip over them.

One could argue, after all, that my GS Examiners were off topic. Nanobyte tried that once, you know. It very nearly stopped my posting them anymore. I'm glad Wyvern set me straight on that one, LOL!

I, too, think having chatrooms at Ironworks will probably take a lot of the load off of the discussion threads, as some of them seem to be almost like a chatroom if you're reading through them.

One other thing: I'm glad to see W&W Forum people coming here to talk. We tend to be a rather insular bunch, almost elitist I would say, and it's good to see some networking going on now with the other forums. More power to it!

Moridin, dear...don't look...I'm OFF TOPIC-ING and I DON'T FEEL BAD!

Sazerac,

I like your style! I think it is good to get all of us together now and again. To learn from and about one another. Be it Gardening or Gaming or about the rabbits in my back yard.

I do think, that making this the place for a lot of the off-topic is good in that it can force us to get out and see the rest of the people in Ironworks. I for one am very impressed with the W and W people I've met in the Female Gamers thread! I am also getting quite curious about other crpgs! I will never have a free moment again as long as I live, but I'll be a happy gamer!


Moni, any time you want to talk gardens/yards/landscaping post to me! Oh and blanket statement I GO OFF TOPIC...and I also don't get bent out of shape if someone does it in one of my threads..

Moridin...sigh... Now what have I done?
