(Personally, I like to see a little personal banter and joking; it helps one get to know the folks we're communicating with. It does go a bit too far sometimes, but for me it only becomes irritating when these two problems are combined -- page after page after page of untrimmed, now-irrelevant quotes many levels deep, scrolling, scrolling, scrolling, just to find a line or two of something completely irrelevant at the bottom.)
I can live with that. My problem is always, where to start revising or cutting what others have said.
And when the original topic (say, about installing Icecat) suddenly veers into philosophy and politics and Big Brother, etc., this really ought to be turned into a completely new, separate thread. It's interesting, sometimes, but the original topic got lost in discussions of matters that were several steps removed from where it started.
So what would be our rule? except to create a new thread, early on, once we realize where this train wreck is headed.
