I'll answer this one if I may Mr Admin. It isn't possible to make a judgement on every posting as to whether it's taking the thread off topic. If it's totally unrelated or chatting between users it's frowned upon and action is taken. Generally long threads go off topic, and then back on topic, then wildly off topic then back op topic etc. When a thread goes off topic for a while (and after a while) then a call may be made to Lounge it or a warning is issued. I know irresponsible posters are warned privately every now and then for their behaviour and this isn't seen in the public domain. I know postings are removed every now and then and these aren't seen by the majority. As the forum's meant to be an informative and fun place, the call is made to pleasantly Lounge a thread rather than destroy it by removing the posts (that can be amusing and informative but not specific to East Dulwich). Anyway, I still think ED needs something decent on the Goose Green roundabout, I know ?8,000 has been assigned to it and I see the flowers have now been removed. I feel something is coming soon...
