I'm a big fan of the threadjack. Even in the threads I post. Makes it seem more like a freeform conversation. More importantly, I don't think anything can be done about it without a lof of heavy-handed moderating.

I do think, however, that the first 4-5 posts in a thread should remain pointedly on-topic. The poster obviously wanted to discuss something, and it's only polite to carry the conversation as far as it can go. I have noticed that if there's more to say regarding a topic, even a successful jacking can be brought back around to the original topic.
