Good thing, and I hope it does RC-Monster Mikes business some good.

I am aware of the fact that this is supposed to be a support forum, but sometimes it's so easy to get carried away and fill pages with off-topic chattering.

I was wondering what you guys, and especially Mike think about this.

I myself see it like this: In certain threads I like to keep it simple, and in some fun/general talk threads I don't mind it at all when some guys share a laugh.

Would like to get your opinion on this.

How "precious" is the data capacity on such a forum, btw.

Thanks
DAF
The ONLY problem with off topic chatter will come when the forum is huge. Folks will follow a thread to find facts and instead they will find chatter. I run several websites and I know this for a fact. If you've ever tried to find something on the traxxas site you'll know what I mean. My thread Tomatos E was Hijacked. Not that I care. I'm not crying :)

Data is the most important thing. It's what brings the people in and more importantly the search engines.
