	Thread Mode Considered Harmful
		The problem with threading is mainly it's ability to WarpTheThread beyond the original topic.
		One of the things that one may find encouraging about the Wiki is it's ability to both to have thread and a linear development of the topic.
		If the readers could then filter out the Threaded pages in the RecentChanges list, they would have a good idea of where the Wiki pages as a whole were heading.

	Tilted Mill Community - Do you mind thread hijacking or does it drive you nuts
		Thread hijacking is when we start talking about "A" and someone changes it to "B" Then it Goes on to "C" and so on so by time you get to the second page the topic has changed compleatly and has nothing to do with the original thread.
		A thread in an Off-Topic part of a forum is just a thread that has nothing to do with the game and we can talk about anything we want.
		Son of Moose, just to hi-jack this thread - which incedentally if the thread is of an informative nature, I do object to it being hi-jacked onto an unrelated topic to be honest.

	RetouchPRO - Question: What is "Thread hijacking"?
		Thread hijacking is a term I just found for an old problem: radical departure from the topic of a thread.
		But, if the thread is titled for one topic and changes a few posts in, chances are only a very few people are ever going to see it, however marvelous and useful it ends up being.
		Also, it isn't fair to the originator of the thread, since many are loath to interupt an ongoing conversation, even if it's just to return to the title topic.

	The Electronic Security Thread. : SF Bay Area Indymedia
		I still feel, however, that electronic security is sufficiently unique a topic to merit its own thread.
		This thread actually began as an off topic digression on another thread.
		This: http://www.indybay.org/news/2002/07/139040.php, for example, may merit a thread of it’s own, but should definitely be linked to this thread here.

	Rotten Tomatoes Forums - FYI - Hijacking of threads is a bannable offense
		My main issue is with people who flood a thread with unrelated posts and pictures that do not contribute nor discuss the topic at hand.
		but if you don't express your viewpoint and simply try to disrupt other people's abilities to use the forum or follow a chain of topic on a thread, then that is where things start to get bannable.
		I was asked to clarify what "Thread Hijacking" means.

	Thread Hijacking - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Thread hijacking is the act of taking a forum discussion thread wildly off topic by discussing a subject entirely unrelated to the subject at hand.
		While this can be an intentional act of trolling, it is often accidental - caused by other participants in the discussion responding to a throwaway remark, taking the thread off at a tangent to the original subject matter.
		The results, whilst often humourous, often extract a feeling of resentment from the author of the post.

	On-topic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A contribution may be off-topic with regard to a thread/page/etc., or with regard to the whole site/newsgroup/etc., which is often established for dealing with specific topics.
		Being on-topic is not generally required to be indicated, but in some groups on-topic discussion is so rare that the header is marked accordingly.
		A contribution is on-topic if it is within the bounds of the current discussion, article, etc. The term is normally used in the context of mailing lists, discussion groups, bulletin boards, newsgroups, and wikis.

	Poker Chips and Playing Cards :: View topic - Invisible Thread
		Jay Sankey has a great effect using it in his Secret Files DVD set where, because of the presentation you would really have a hard time guessing it is invisible thread.
		I have to agree with Baz on this one, invisible thread is underrated, there are a ton of things you can use it for.
		No matter how "invisible" it is, people still guess its string, because I guess its been overdone.

	View topic - Two new non-tech forums and a warning about thread hijacking
		If you hijack a thread in any of the technical areas, expect your posts to be deleted.
		I'm also going through the more comprehensive threads, such as the Maf customizer, and reorganizing the information so its easier to read, and pruning out the garbage, hopefully actually allowing someone to read through some of the previous pages.
		We also reserve the right to remove posts that are not contributing to a technical topic, especially repeat questions or stuff that could be answered with the search button.

	MetaTalk Community Weblog
		If some particular person is moving the thread off topic and it's bugging you, email them about it or post it to Metatalk (do not post in the original thread complaining about it, that will just add to the noise).
		Sometimes another thread is hot at the time and takes focus away from an equally deserving thread.
		My first reaction is to resist attemps by others to limit the scope of the conversation, but I can see reasons to keep it focused, too, especially given the short lifetime of any thread.

	@forums - poll: should rep points be taken for hijacking a thread?
		and, since this forum is not about any particular topic, artist, etc, then i think hijacking a thread is ok (if irritating at times).
		serious threads that are hijacked usually end up back on course.
		Sometimes I get all paranoic and think "omg they hate me!!!!" (well, not really, but when I do like or care for someone, I'd like to be noticed by them, I guess) so ya, it's nice when they dot you.

		I have kept it on topic and since i was the creator of the thread i think as long as it is on the lines on music and rock/metal whatever it is NOT hijacked.
