Forum Maintenance

[Saxon]

This is a kindly worded request to those posting on the board and, perhaps, to the administrators.

Of late, there has been a proliferation of postings which have nothing to do with either SEIV or military and strategic subjects generally. Those threads that are clearly labeled “OT” are not problematic, they clearly state their intentions and are often fun. I am thinking more of the posting of song lyrics, odd word associations and essays upon cultural norms.

These off topic and inappropriate postings have been disturbing me and others. For the first time in months I have seen flames being posted and people complaining that activity is dropping off in the forum.

Thus, I would request that Posts be kept related to the topic of SEIV or military and strategic subjects generally. If you are in doubt of what is appropriate, you should look around the forum and appreciate the culture which has grown up here. Knowing the cultural perspectives of many cultures is useful, but knowing how to fit into the culture you are taking part in is even more important.
