Derails?

For me there a couple different kinds of derails..

The first is a natural progression of questions or comments... The thread takes on it's own life....

The second is when a group of people come in to play...

The first, for me is organic and I just go with the flow (most of the time, I've found you can't make people talk about what YOU want to talk about if they are on another track)

The second one kinda pisses me off... Yes, I get that sometimes people are trying to lighten the thread (I've even done it myself) but when it goes on for several pages and the org topic is gone and it's turned into a wit and banter thread.. well it's frustrating and I just leave..
