Why not 100% Stones or 90% Stones and 10% other music?

If your mind is filled with 90% Stones then may be it is time to take a break with something off topic? On the more serious side, I think a 100% or 90% "on topic" site would be pretty "nerdy" and boring.

Off Topic posts may be deleted ... especially if they are NOT marked as OT: ...
By the way, I don't mind some off topic threads every now and then, but if there are such ot threads without the OT: prefix, then it is misleading, people may think it might be Stones related, and they act as click bait. So I delete them as part of my regular cleanup procedure. A good subject line like a good headline is king and important in any kond of communication. No misleading headlines please.
Also, take a look at the IORR forum first page. If there are already more than 1/3 off topic, then for sure there are enough off topic. I want IORR to be at least 50% hopefully 75% about Stones and Stones related, in order to keep focus, also in order no to confuse search engines. If there are 100's of Garth Brooks threads here then may be Google think this is a Garth Brooks site.
I am sure everybody do know about this, I am mentioning this to those over 90 years old, it is so easy to forget you know, to those who were parents when Brian Jones was on stage...

"Ronnie's wife giving birth to twins" – imo that's way more off topic than a thread about Bob Dylan, AC/DC etc

You get that Ronnie is a Rolling Stone, right?

...and the fact that Ronnie just got twins might affect the Rolling Stones plans for the time to come, i.e. it is pretty ON topic if you ask me.

It's just Bjornulf's Norwegian sense of humor, rootsman. We love him in spite of it.

I'll admit I started a ongoing thread long ago with the title "Rolling Stones Glasses" that I knew was somewhat misleading but would get people the check it out. All of the posts are about the Rolling Stones band members.
So where do I stand on that one?

VERY SORRY BV...I am guilty of not using OT on some of my recent posts.
I apologize. You do such a fine job of organizing these threads, and I messed up! Will try to not do this again.
