Many a times members tend to go offtopic inside a thread

Now we know telling them to stay ON topic all the time isn't really the most efficient way, so why not use another method?

Why don't we add an "off topic" button alongside bold, italics, quote etc when posting. It will help keep the thread more organized as anything said off topic will be easily distinguished. People who're more concerned on the subject, will obviously ignore the offtopic comment.


This will give a clearer perspective.

Given a light color (such as gray) so that it is not obvious, and easily seperated.

*shrugs*. The rest is upto you guys!
Cheers!

Who would be marking the posts as "off topic"?

1. If the mods are responsible I think it would add a tremendous work load to what they already have.
2. If the members are responsible I think you would see abuse as some might mark others comments as off topic to better get their advice considered.

I don't think it will happen. We have a "report offensive thread" button already which can be used for any rules violations no matter how trivial or small.

I don't think so you got me.

The mods won't do it, obviously. Like I said.. there will be a button alongside the "Bold, italics, red etc etc" for ALL MEMBERS to use. No one has to "mark" them either. It'll be like this -> Example
