The way I read it, the current policy does not allow moderators strict control of posts being on topic unless the thread originator specifies. I do wish more threads would stay on topic, and wish more thread originators request it for threads of importance. I have had one member make such a request on one thread in a year.
§ Staying on topic can be difficult. If the originator of the thread would like for the thread to remain on topic, a message indicating this at the time the original post is made should be included in the statement. If the thread veers off topic beyond what the thread originator is comfortable with, that individual should make a post asking that the thread return to the topic. Moderators are available to assist as well and can be contacted by the thread originator.
