Threads going off-topic

Can I just say (before I get and do some real work!) that one of the things I like about this site is that, while getting the job done and giving people answers, there tends not to be excessive moderation in terms of thread policing.....how some of these threads end up where they do considering where they started from frankly eludes me???!!

BUT it makes for a great, friendly community, and providing the site can afford the server space does it matter? Bat would soon start complaining if it did, be sure of that.

So this is just my vote of confidence in a great, helpful fun members site that lots of other communities envy I'm sure. And bigups to Bat and the (thankfully few) Mods for their efforts.

Heavy moderation = monotonous environment.

It is the tangents that threads shoot off on that make for a vibrant club/community
