Please I would like to propose:
Off topic posters please include OT at the front of your message. Some
of us want to talk about IFR here, since, after all, that is the subject
of the group. And I would like to filter out the off topic posts.
Please. If you respect this group.

The folks most likely to go off topic are least likely to respect the group.
Good luck.

If you respect this group, you won't put off-topic posts
here at all. They're no more palatable to me with OT
on them than without.

Why did you not include OT at the front of your message?

Those that respect this group don't post off topic messages at all.

Oddly, discussion of what is topcial (or not), is topical.

With OT at the front, you can filter them out.
