Hello everyone, Ok, the off topic posts have gone on long enough. Plese, let us sease with the off topic posts and get things back to more or less game related topics. Cara has setup a general discussion list for these unrelated off topic posts, and I suggest anyone who wants to discuss something off topic for this list head over there to chat. As for why Kevin, Raul, and I generally do not allow off topic posts there are several factors in our decision. If we allow one person to post even one off topic post others tend to join in and begin discussing stuff that has nothing to do with gaming. The point of this list is to discuss games and not what your favorite author is, how cool last nights movie was, how to do something with Window Eyes or Jaws, etc. The owners/moderators of this list feel it is in the list's best interests to talk about gaming and game related topics only. Nicol brought up the point of email client message rules. While that is doable the moderators of the list do not feel any lister should be forced to create message filters or message rules to block off topic posts just because a handful of posters want to discuss something other than games on the list. It is up to the moderators to filter and create the message rules for the list, and we do that filtering. Besides which allot of posters don't often change subject lines accordingly, and it is completely possible that off topic content would be found in emails with on topic subject lines. So message rules in an email client wouldn't be an effective way of blocking off topic posts. So without delay let us all get things back on topic. Thanks.
