chris blandSome people like the off-topic stuff, some find it annoying. Personally, I find it annoying and a hinderance to what the board's purported goals are.
Having been around since the full count days, it seems like more people respond to World Series Heroes and Steroid threads (even if it is to just bitch about the thread creators) than posts about cards.
I dont think there are any more off topic threads than before, but there are a lot more posts in those threads. Maybe that is just a result of more people seeing this board, I donno - but card threads get bumped down the ladder by 100 post off topic threads, and quickly disappear from the front page. That, to me, is the discouraging thing.
