right basically an anything goes conversation thread for al those conversations that hijack threads. (you know who ye are people) i'm guility of it too i know but if we can use this were there is no topic then no one will have to read loads of unrelated posts when they read a thread. i suggest mods dump snipped sections of conversations in here if its all right with the admins.

the evil belly : sometimes its rather hard to come to a decision weather, its a conversation or not. But I do get where you are coming from. What I've been doing , well not recently because of exams , splitting the posts into the off topic form, say from the joke forums , the ones with too many replies, and giving a little notice saying that it was split. Something like this [here (http://www.eirjobs.com/rant/showthread.php?threadid=2365)]

I don't think putting it in one thread is the answer. Maybe putting it in its seperate own thread. There are a few reasons for this, the main one being that if you merge two threads , it will join them together based on the actual post dates and times, in that order. So some conversations would not really make anysense.

comments welcomed

maybe when you're online and it seems like a convo' is strating one of the guilty partys should just start a thread in off topic of the convo' OR get in contact w/ them over messanger or some other messanging service(although that doesnt always help:umm: :emb: :umm: )

change the name of the site to some cheesy porn name then when people go searching for their porn they'll stumble upon this. best to start some screening system if you adopt this idea!
