Guest guest Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 The only things that are considered off-topic are messages talking about how much you hate cat hair or fixing your car. Subjects that have absolutely no relevance to this diet (unless you couldn't go to a WW meeting because you had to fix your car =Þ.) If those kind of messages come up, no one will usually say anything, unless it becomes a habit that someone is posting too much non-WW stuff. 175/157.8/130 Re: moderating > > wondered, > > > > > I am still having a major problem with all of this.
