I've never understood why people care about off topic threads. It's an

absolutely trivial to filter/delete/ignore messages in a specific
thread. Given that, it's not like anyone not interested in a particular
thread is being forced to read or even *manually* deal with unwanted
messages.
Some might stay tuned in the unlikely event that the original topic might be
further discussed...
Uhhhh.....if you have some desire to discuss the "original topic" is
there something that prevents you from either replying to a message
without the OT warning in the subject line, or posting a new message
with a subject indicating what you want to talk about?
