Topic: Off-topic replies

[Peripatetic Phil]

As it was me who suggested that the heating related posts be separated-out, the least you could have done was to open a new thread called something like 'room heating' in Talk about anything.

And spend the rest of my day trying to factor out the off-topic replies to Iain's thread into those pertaining to (a) oil, (b) butter, (c) ghee, (d) butter bells, (e) butter spreading, (f) room temperatures, and (g) anything else.  No, sorry George, life is too short.  Once a thread goes off-topic, I will migrate all off-topic replies into a single sub-thread of "Off-topic replies" with a subject line that tries to reflect the various topics encompassed.  If you want to start a new thread entitled "Room heating", I will happily move those earlier replies that address that topic to your new thread.

Alternatively (or in addition), as we still have only two moderators, why don't you offer your services as moderator of the "Off-topic replies" thread ?  You could then do with it as you saw fit.

Hell no! We've been there with George already - isn't that how we ended up with you Phil?

No, when George stood down, he was replaced by Curryhell

To clarify (for everyone), I don't have the tool to split threads, or move individual posts. All I can do is delete or modify them. So if you swear, I will modify the post (presumably), and if it becomes non-productive hot air, I will delete it (as you have seen), but I can't do anything in between. I mean,  I'm currently the moderator of this thread-and there's nothing I can do with it at all, except kill/morph selected posts 

SMF provide for a multi-layered forum administura. I for one welcome any new overlords!

I'm sure you will do your best but, as I have said before, moderation of this forum is a thankless task.

Ah, I did not realise that.  In that case, since we moderators should work as a team, please let me know if there are any threads that you would like split, or individual posts that you would like moved, and I will endeavour to do the necessary.  It may not work, because it is extraordinarily easy to make a mistake in the split/merge process, but I will try nonetheless.

Hi, I would like to ask if the juicer and juicer consumes power. Plus, I plan to use the pressure cooker to make food. Does it cost a lot? Thanks!
