I like what a lot of people are saying, Ted, Lyle, Nathen, etc. But Joe's answer kind fits my opinion the best. If it is Linux related, it is on topic. If it is tech related, Off Topic is a great place for it, if it is way off topic, then mark it Off Topic or OT and have a clear description. I filter thousands of messages a day into the trash, I am sure others can to.

Above all, say what you are going to say but don't be a dick and try to be respectful. We are all in it together people - act like it once in a while and things will general work out.

I vote for keeping the PLUG list exactly the way it is.
It works just fine.

So what if there is occasional digression.
A little digression is often interesting ... (up to a point).

As long as "Off Topics" are plainly marked "OT," let it be.

As JD (and others) noted, we all have a delete key and the
ability to filter topics or individuals if/as desired.

Also, a polite private note is usually a much better remedy
than public thrashing over perceived offenses.

Thank y'all for this great PLUG community.
