Taran, these things seem to erupt annually ala Mt. Vesuvius. Usually over the same 2 or 3 topics. Your blowing the trumpet annually with a "here is how we should behave" message should cure the sickness.

Thanks for the tip, Bobby! That was how the group was set up until yesterday. Unfortunately several of the folks going off-topic were long-time members who were no longer moderated.
I hope to go back to your way of doing things in a few days once some folks calm down.
Thanks again,
Taran
