Why should we need Browsemaster which seems clumsy (and I can't figure it out). Also it involves a fee, eventually. It would be better if SI built in an "Ignore" feature which allowed everyone the opportunity to list by user name those posters they want to ignore. I believe Raging Bull and ICQ has one.

I think the best way of handling OT between people who have got to know each other because of a common interest in COMPAQ is to have a shadow thread such as "COMPAQ OT". Posters could flip between the two.

Semi-seriously there could also be a thread for the DELLHEADS and bears who visit to rehearse their channel-stuffing and "EP is a liar" and COMPAQ ABOUT TO MEET ITS END routine: it could be COMPAQ BEARS.

This thread could be maintained for information, news, and on-topic discussion and normal greetings between friends and for OT postings by Dean Elwood, Jimbo, Red Scouser, Lynn, me and the whole Royal Family. (Sorry if I've missed anyone out).
