Thread Hijacking

 

Thread Hijacking

Thread hijacking is the art of taking a forum discussion thread wildly off topic in the space of a single post.

While this can be an intentional act of trolling, it is often accidental - caused by other participants in the discussion responding to a throwaway remark, taking the thread off at a tangent to the original subject matter.
