meandering topics

like the ability to search topics. It is also nice to have different topic headings (horse evolution, transitional fossils, etc) but during the debate, I guess not surprisingly, the topics tend to 'meander' as debaters bring up side issues that need to responses. Other than having a moderator for each topic, I can't think of any way to avoid this. Perhaps, simply an occassional reminder among debaters would be a good idea or am I wrong and this doesn't really matter to anyone?

BUMPAn old problem, and a current problem. See Percy's response also (and strain your eyes reading that blue text, while you're at it.)People, try to pay attention to what the topic is, and try to stay in the vacinity of it.Adminnemooseus------------------

How many people here, stop to consider what the orignal main theme of a topic is/was, before posting to that topic?I really must suspect that far too few of the lines of current discussion are on the theme of the containing topic.Also, once again I ENCOURAGE all new topic starters, to try to put a GOOD, DESCRIPTIVE title on the topic. Not something like "A question", or "I Was Wondering".Adminnemooseusps: BUMP![This message has been edited by Adminnemooseus, 11-16-2003]
