Suggestion: make off limits any (5.00 / 3) (#2)

further discussion of HRC's landing in Bosnia.  That will cut the comments in about half.

I'll just go and erase them (5.00 / 1) (#4)

Unless they are on an open thread, they are off-topic to the posts here. Neither BTD nor I have written about that.

And it's a good way to spot new trolls and chatterers. Thanks for the heads-up. This place will be cleaned out within 48 hours.

Wading through the trolls' detritus was getting, um, tiring.

Have you considered asking "chatterers" to pay up -- there might be some willing to pay for their habit

Might end up being win-win -- you get more money for bandwidth and they can chatter on.

Just a suggestion.. =)

and they think they can chatter on endlessly and the rest of the rules don't apply because they paid. Doesn't work.

Thanks for the new comment policy. I am new here and was overwhelmed by the amount of off-topic chatter. It's not worth participating if you have to wade through piles of crap to find the worthwhile posts.  I had almost decided to give up on this site before I even got started.  91 posts in one day from a single user?  No wonder I was put off.
