Off Topic Room 101

[Mi-Amigo]

               WELCOME to the DUNGEON of the COMMUNITY OFF-TOPIC GANG known as

                          

             We have members of the Community Off-Topic Gang. We have the Naughty Step.

Now we have our very own ROOM 101, where the members of the Community Off-Topic Gang can banish there dislikes - not people - but events can be banished...

Also anyone who voted NO regarding topic banner header being changed halfway through a post, is with due respect, a lunatic.

I spend so much of my time taking topic headers back to the original one, that I think I deserved an extra 10/6p in my paypacket (said the Mad Hatter)

The Dormouse has been up bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.

 @Marjo ; @ComaChameleon ; and @gmarkj have not voted yet.

So do you want to wait for their votes, or want the results of votes cast so far?

The majority decision will decide what goes in, and what does not go in, to Off Topic Room 101. So far, the votes show there may be a few surprises...

If changing the topic subject gets voted into Room 101, then The Mad Hatter should get a 10/6 bonus, but if changing the topic subject on a thread half-way through doesn`t get voted into Room 101 then the Mad Hatter doesn`t get a bung extra payment, said The Dormouse [from inside the teapot]

Well, @ComaChameleon  is on holiday, @Marjo  is probably far to busy doing proper work and not sure where @gmarkj  is...so best get on with it. Said the Mad Hatter tapping her foot impatiently.

The Changing topic heading going into room 101 astounds me!!

So people think its ok to change a heading from Off Topic room101 to Off Topic BST for and Against but carry on talking about other items for Room 101 which have nothing to do with BST

I've given the most recent example here but there are loads more.

I am constantly changing the topic heading back to it's original as it's confusing getting emails about the same topic but under a different heading.

It's certainly OK to meander Off Topic in an Off Topic thread and we do frequently. It is NOT ok to randomly change a Topic heading when the topic is still active,

May I, very gently, say @Cleoriff that the majority of votes agree with you. It is not the topic heading but changes to the topic heading which is confined to Room 101, and, as you said, it is not ok to randomly change when topic is still live and active.

Well I know that you and I work tirelessly returning them to the original title @MI5  so I'm pleased you agree.

PS I have changed the title you slipped in

[Cleoriff]

With due respect @Mi-Amigo  under CONSIGNED TO ROOM 101 I see this

Changing topic heading - 5 for, 2 against

So in fact you have consigned it to Room 101.

I have no time to discuss it further as I am orf out. Best of luck.....
