It shouldn't be policed and shut down unless it has degraded into personal attacks, flame-fests, or whatever else that is deemed to be able to cause problems off the forum. Since we all live relatively close the peace should be kept. But I think shutting down off-topic threads for going off-topic is 
have a moderator keep track of current threads, someone to deal with any of the above mentioned problems and delete or fix the problem. But leave the harmless tangent threads alone |
thank you for your well thought, mature response. this is the kind of feedback i would beg for. just wanted to point that out so others can see an example of a good argument that gets through to us (as opposed to something with lots of typos or cursing or insulting the mods or just not making any decent points at all).
i'm discussing the things mentioned above regarding OT right now with the other mods and hopefully we'll be able to make some changes in the near future that will leave everyone happy.
