I note now that a number of the BWOT posters are starting the same here. Now, I realize that OT means one can open any topic under the sun but there are social networks for that. It is my opinion that forums such as these should stick to the relevant car topics and we could live without an OT at all.

I assume that will never happen so all I can ask of the moderators is to keep an eye on the usual suspects and keep the technical forums technical.

That's todays rant

The technical topics are being affected? you should link them so that we have an example.

Otherwise its an election year, people have opinions, they are gonna voice them. Not much that can be done about that, long as people stay more or less in the rules and are civil, place seems about the same as its been for the last couple years (during my tenure).
