Off-Topic Posts - markn

I have just spent an hour deleting or moving off topic posts. Something that I spend more time doing these days than I actually do posting. And I am sick of it. The same core of half a dozen members seem to insist on turning thread after thread into their own playground. By doing so you are ruining it for others by making those threads useless. It's so hard to find any useful information among the pages and pages of useless banter that I (and many others) just can't be bothered anymore.

For the core of off-topic posters. There is a chit-chat forum. USE IT. I will no longer have any patience for off topic posts in numismatic threads and will delete them without consideration to their content. I'll be encouraging the other moderators to do the same. Anyone who has complaint with this policy is welcome to take it up with me. But if you're one of the core group of repeat offenders expect no sympathy. You have been warned many times and there's going to be no more warnings.

Be aware that I have the ability to restrict people to posting to the non numismatic forums and if things continue the way they are now then I'll be doing that to people who continue to post off-topic. I won't have a few people ruining things for everyone else.
