It just means the conversation shifts for when someone posts in context
that they are not following the social path.. you then end up with long
diatribes about how in-context breaks X,Y,Z things that top-posting people

who follow 'a convention' and those who do not. We are filtering our
in-house people versus our unclean just like any other org.
