I agree, Willow, I have noticed that lately myself (I am also guilty of that sometimes myself). I really do think that the "off-topic" stuff goes hand-in-glove with spamming (that I have seen alot of lately). I am guilty of that too sometimes. I mean a certain amount of "spam-like" posting is allowed in Cloudy's conversation zone, but I have lately seen entire threads that have not been posted to really say anything. I guess I am not expressing myself very well. In my opinion, getting off-topic a bit is natural and may be the out-growth of where the conversation leads, but some of it is blatantly off-topic. Just seeking information and clarification, but what do you consider "off-topic" comments in a thread? I think carrying on a personal conversation in a thread is "off-topic" and better done in pms or chat. But, I agree, Willow, it has been happening ALOT more lately.
