1. Do not archive posts subject-marked with OT. Can this not be automated?
Instead why not have the list maintainer auto delete posts with OT in them so they don't even make it to the list.
That was done once upon a time. Did not work well, for reasons others have already mentioned. Ie, OT posts would be posted without the OT in the subject line - which is worse and defeats the intention. And about not archiving OT posts... those are a minimum. Most are simply forks and derivations of an original good threads that wander off topic, and those would require manual work to remove from the archive... and then we'd get people angry because some post was "censored". No, I don't think that pruning the archive is that good an idea. Not practical, anyway. Perhaps if readers of the archive could score posts :-? - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
