IMPORTANT POLL: Should there be an off-topic section?

But to get the correct response I believe a new thread must come from Dave.
I'd say that TE thread of 4x scope samples is a good example.
Dave is #79, OP thanked #11.

Was there something wrong with that thread that I missed? :-//

You didn't miss anything. Rest easy ;)

Difficulty depends on the height of the horse, from ivory tower it's very difficult but among friends it's very easy.
Obviously, and even among friends, different actual actions can change things.

I don't understand what exactly in it is irrelevant.
At least participants experience of the thread is relevant, all of them.
Shy voices must be guided, maybe guarded.
Grumpy old men are not exactly a disappearing resource but their electronics can be.
More vocal folks will also always dominate, difference is only in contents.
Community moderation will work indefinitely if community stays homogeneous enough.
And fails instantly when heterogeneous goes over the tipping point, simply because different groups have so different demands.
Bringing up stackexchange indicates that your moderator is preventing things.
My moderator is maintaining things.
And Thread Topicness and Section Hierarchy Issues of Maintenance Hierarchy would handle nit pickers.
Community moderation of heterogeneous community can still work but then its homogeneous parts must be, at least partially separated.
If Other Communities here get Cars section it can finally and quite easily dominate the traffic of the whole place but would that be a bad thing.
Forums can also split under the same roof, so Dave would still benefit, I guess.

No, and what tggzzz said.
Maybe some insights for one question.
Would, from maintenance team point of view, rotating active member moderator, if that kind of thought has been up, of TEA thread have exploded the thing already years ago?
