It is very difficult for users to pour their hearts and thoughts out into words and put them in print.

It is insulting and degrading to have a Mod make a subjective decision (usually based on their own beliefs) and tell the user to 'shut up'.

Posts that are way off topic will die on their own. Others may find a post on-topic when others don't. Once the members have their say, it will also die off.

If it won't die off (as sometimes happens) Mods can make a determination (when it's completely obvious) that the conversation is going in circles and close the thread.

Closing or deleting a thread in the midst of a rousing discussion is a bad policy and alienates members.
