Re: QLD posters
I wasn't talking about thread hi-jacking, though. If you look at the first part of my post that you didn't quote, you will see I was contributing to the discussion on groups/cliques etc.
Taking threads off topic is another story entirely .... and I've yet to see a thread that's still on topic by page 2, no matter what site I go on

I've posted on sites where ANY topic drift was severely frowned upon and usually removed.. overall, not pleasant places to post. Especially if you have the attention span of a thing with a very short attention span indeed. Like me.

Yeah, I know that your post was a development of the group discussion, I was just stealing your analogy to try and explain why thread hi-jacking, rather than topic drift, was annoying

Anyways, I think we need a name for this group of QLD miscreants. I was thinking perhaps the 'Dirty Dozen' although there may be less than twelve of them.

Have to put my hand up to rarely moving stuff from the Barbie to Aus. I do spend a fair amount of time shifting stuff to Immi though so I'm not completely useless.
