A week or so ago I introduced a friend of mine to this forum and after lurking around for a few days he told me that this place is "nothing but a bunch of self-absorbed people more interested in arguing with each other than anything else" - then sat me down and showed me why he was saying that. Quite frankly now I wish I'd never even mentioned the UT to the guy.


Maybe a branch feature on the thread? Allow people to vote to split the thread at a certain point? 10 votes migrates the branch to the chatter thread?


BTW, this should be in UT Suggestions. :-)
