On/off topic is very relevant, since it determines moderator involvement. Many people feel moderation is broken, and topical candidates are an element of it.

This is an excellent point to bring up, and it's good to have alternative forums. But. It's a band-aid, in the short term, and won't do much to 'unalienate' (disalienate?) those who have departed, by choice or otherwise, because of moderator actions. - billn
