Stay On Topic (Even in the Off Topic Board)

[on:]

We have a lot of Newbies recently and I have been away for a few days and noticed a lot of posts I have to go back and delete.  I thought I would remind you all to please keep the off topic out of the Wish Void section.  Also try to keep some of the off topic threads on their topics.  I know off topic should be off topic right?  But like the Book thread or the Movie Reviews thread, or other things that I am trying to keep from going straight to hell.  I spent several hours yesterday on my sad little modem deleting stuff.

It goes without saying that the on topic board should stay on topic.  If you want to chat back and forth with someone, try emailing them or using a private message service like AIM, or ICQ, or go to a chatroom, there is even a link at the bottom of PEEL to the chatroom.  Easy, Fast, and it will keep me from killing everyone.  thanks

Oh and if you have a problem with someone or their post could you use alert button to complain to mArc about it instead of just trying to yell at them yourself.  Marc enjoys the extra work, don't worry

yeah, please do (its the yellow exclamation mark below each post). By posting things like "stop padding/increasing your postcount/make sense already" all you do is making yourself a target for those same things.
All complains over the alert link are handled confidently.
If you use it, please make sure you do not edit the subject line it creates or the included link. you can tell whats wrong with the post below that link.

thanks

Actually that was the best part of the joke.  It was a sly parody of someone else on PEEL
