Yeah, I think one of the hardest things to learn is figuring out what to ignore. I'm not reading like 2/3 of the detailed discussions but even with experience it's hard to filter. And we have a real thread management problem around here. It's not uncommon for the same subject line to devolve into 3 or more entirely separate conversations, sometimes switching between Discussion and Business, and it becomes impossible to find the meat of what's actually going on versus a lot of chatter. Chatter is meant in a good way, this is a very social game, but when one part of the thread is 2 people talking about an arcane technical detail that I'm happy to let them hash out on their own, and another part of the thread is actually playing or something, it's a challenge. -G.
