Default Misuse of a thread

Is there a way to make the forum monitors aware of a blatant misuse of a hijacked thread?

Is there a way to contact the owners of this forum?

I have been looking at the various forum pages and do not seem to be able to find it.

in the upper right hand corner of each post in the thread, is the yellow triangle icon- click that and it takes you to a "report form" page

Yes, if an OP has a thread but it is hijacked by juvenile petty bickering as the "Any of you girls plow snow to get out in the winter "has been I believe that it should be mentioned.

The thread was interesting, and fun, until a couple of participants decided to hijack the thread and use it for a place to fight.

If they want to fight start a new thread or PM each other. But to hijack an entertaining thread, even after others have attempted to bring the thread back to the initial topic, is inappropriate.

Thanks for the info.

Think Matty needs to turn that frown upside down and not take an anonymous forum so serious.

I mean your complaining about people posting on a forum WTF!
