[quote=jsteele]I am not going to respond to every post, but I will use the example of the Auditory Processing Disorder thread to help clarify my position. The OP of that thread very specifically requested a recommendation for an audiologist who could test or diagnose for APD. Posters jumped into tell her that there is no such thing as APD while others said that their children had such a diagnosis. Some posters suggested that a neuropsych exam should be done instead, while others argued this was a waste of money.  Then posters who apparently recognized each other from previous threads engaged in what appear to be long-running arguments with each other. The OP was essentially forgotten. At some point I am pretty sure the entire thread turned to discussion of someone else's kid. This sort of thing has happened repeatedly and I will no longer tolerate it. If it means removing posts and blocking posters, that's what will happen.

You can sit around trying to think of the worse case scenario involving what I am saying or you can simply try to be helpful to future posters and avoid more threads going off-topic in this manner. I would prefer the second alternative, though I have plenty of experience with the first.
