Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an intergral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on it's evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
I would like to know why I'm banned so much?
I agree, and when you get a ban they are not polite about it, even when ones post is an innocuous question within the bounds of Q (question everything). Kind of a power trip I suppose. Who knows what goes through their mind. Perhaps they feel they are doing the right thing, but people should be able to disagree honorably. I do believe they should change the rules and allow at least one (kind) warning first instead of coming on hard with indecent language and attacks.
One possibility is that you post such low quality content, consistently.
Is that why I have 147K points. I do get some good replies.
Off the top of my head, looking at this fact, I would say you must have been a heavy lifter for a while, who has for some reason at some point in time, started posting low quality content.
Not sure General Chat can help you with that.
Because the squirrel lost his nut.
