Chad's list ignores the elephant in the livingroom — off-topic threads about
off-topic posts. I have no intention of counting and measuring, but my hunch
is that the biggest bandwidth wasters of late are threads like these where
people bitch and counter-bitch about off-topic posts. The angst
over "post-appropriateness" seems to take (waste?) far more time than the
off-topic threads themselves.
seconded. i've felt this way for about a month now, but didn't say
anything at the worried expense of being flamed (which, unfortunately, i
fear you very well may be, Art. i wish you luck. get your fire
extinguisher ready.)
I vote for Steve Gran's suggestion that serial offenders be addressed
off-list.
again, seconded (thirded?).
