Off-Topic Messages on SHADO

Hi all,

I've noticed an increase in off-topic messages on SHADO lately,
with people arguing about other movies, other TV shows, other
directors, etc. I don't mind a little of this, especially
if there is some connection to UFO, but it might be getting
a bit out of hand. Everyone else may not have noticed this
because as moderator I've been rejecting about half of these
posts, so you aren't seeing what I'm seeing.

So hopefully we can try and keep things a little more on-topic.
Something to do with UFO. Maybe even a little discussion on
our current UFO episode up for discussion, A QUESTION OF PRIORITIES?

Also, for anyone who isn't familiar with the rules for SHADO,
you might want to check them out here:

The main problems I tend to see over and over (and over) again are:

* off-topic messages
* replies that include the contents of the entire message
that is being replied to
* cute-one liners

And unfortunately, some people do all three of these things in
the same message! :-/

Sorry, Marc. Guess I should have sent that e-mail to Mike directly. Will
do better next time.
Yours,
Denise
