Thread digressions on TORn are, for the most part, not disrespectful of the person who originated the thread; they're simply chain-of-thought side-discussions, and they're not uncommon at all. They're a "peculiarity" of the way these Boards are set up. Think of it as a group of people standing around chatting, then someone says something which causes two or three of them to start up their own conversation. And every now and then someone will apologize for "hijacking" the thread!
