nothing wrong in general conversation within posts but as per the forum AUP (see below) does it help if posts go off topic ?  therefore

1, Do you not care?

2, Let moderators delete or moderate

3, or have a private members logged in area for general conversational discussions and banter ?

Stay on topic

As much as possible; please stay on topic within a forum post. If you feel that a particular topic is not being covered then start a new thread rather than replying to an old one.

but does it not deter new comers with the friendly banter which they may not be akin to

plus if they have the notification on to receive emails when someone replies, does this not end up spamming them with needless notification

I don't see a major problem.  If I'm at a meeting and the business has been discussed, the conversation will normally move on.  It's no different on here.  If people dont want to receive lots of emails they shouldn't tick the notify box.

Are you picking on me again Marshall? I have tried really hard not to upset anyone, but sometimes I just cannot hold back.

Well, Darren, I can't play golf so I might just as well hijack threads.
