I have a suggestion. It seems that several people are annoyed with the lack of swimming content in many of the threads (darn those thread hijackers). What if we created a section for Off Topic Questions and threads. It seems that would be an easy solution and make everyone happy.

I can't believe how hostile people are getting. While I still don't understand why people can't just ignore threads that are clearly off topic (or why it bothers people so much) I think adding an icon to the beginning of the thread title (or somewhere in) is a great idea.
I suggest the :o smiley face ... just a thought.
I think we all enjoy coming here for different reasons. I love talking about swimming and getting great advice and hearing about what other people do at their workouts. I also think it's neat to hear about the likes and dislikes of other swimmers as well as being crazy with them. I am sorry that that has upset so many people. I am probably the queen of off topic posts so I am sure much anger is directed at me. I am sorry. I'll buy several pitchers at worlds next year and get you all so obliterated you won't care any more ;)
