@Nordwulf...
Sorry that was your thread that got hijacked. It was a perfectly good question to begin with and I think it was well on the way to being answered. I doubt whether we will have a rule that outlaws enigmatic thread titles any time soon.
On the other hand, I have had threads of my own derailed and I know how annoying it can be. That is forum life and you have to take it with a pinch of salt.
It seems that occasionally, especially when things get a bit tedious or gloomy, the forum breaks into a bout of spontaneous banter.
No hard feelings, I hope, and again – apologies.
whatever

Re: whatever
Perhaps I overreacted just a wee bit.
I don't mind banter and the occasional derailment of a thread but those are best suited for the Off-topic forums. I have just spent enough time on (car) forums where going off-topic just makes a thread useless. And it wasn't meant to be a rule, just a suggestion for the other members.
I was just trying to bring up a topic that I thought would make this forum better. And if you get 2 pages with responses from all the comedians here, that's a bit disappointing.
Thanks for the sincere thoughts besides the banter.
