I agreed with this as a general principle strongly enough to pay a 5 karma penalty to say so. I don't think it should be as down voted as it is.

I can't recall having ever participated in a forum or blog and have the pay offs of meta-discussion be higher than discussing something else. More problematically it is way too engaging than it should be and is an attention sink.

If you really believe meta-discussions are inappropriate, delete the parent comment.
