Why so many on the board? Off Topic in the MOD handbook:
Posts not about the topic of the board including other stocks or companies.
Posts about or focusing on other Members or groups of people and their reasons for posting on the board (i.e. "XYZDownDaDrain" is just a basher, ignore him", "XYZToDaMoon" is a pumper", "the naysayers are very loud today", "c'mon, where did all the cheerleaders go?"). The post does not have to be addressed to a specific person. If the post is about other Users then it should be removed.
Posts with religious or political statements should be removed as "off topic". These inevitably create an avalanche of replies that are off topic as well.
Posts about MODERATORS and/or DELETIONS are also "off topic".
Issues of this nature need to be discussed with a Site Admin.
Putting "ot" at the beginning of a post does not make it acceptable. It is still off topic and eligible for removal.

Mods edit out "noise": those are postings that in the case of this board are of no useful info to tree owners ;in the off topic category. These are just the off topic issues. How this is done is that if something is off topic in your message, the whole message gets removed, sorry if 99% is not removable by itself and that one little sentence wipes out everything.
